Airports are the only place where I have ever chosen to pay for a Wi-Fi connection. So I agree. But the rate is still too high such that I will not pay unless I have over an hour and I really need to get on.
That is also why I like airports like Vegas (America West) and Tampa (Delta) where access is free, at least in the terminals I use.

It seems the Philly airport is only seeing 10,000 connections per month on their Wi-Fi network. I would argue that an airport is one of the top places where someone would be willing to pay for a Wi-Fi connection. 10,000 connections per month is going to take a long long time to return the investment spent putting in the network. -Matt -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ ************************************************************************ ************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses(191). ************************************************************************ ************ ************************************************************************ ************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses(42). ************************************************************************ ************ ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
