Free Wireless Internet Access
Wikipedia defines a Municipal Wireless Network as, “the concept of turning an entire city into a Wireless Access Zone (WAZ), with the ultimate goal of making wireless access to the Internet a universal service.” Only a handful of cities in the United States have created free wireless internet access hubs due to cost and logistics. The price tag on the defunct San Franciso wireless network was projected at $405 million. The projected five-year saturation point was predicted to be much higher than the current totals as we head into 2010.
The internet has come so far in five years, however free wireless access lags behind. Perhaps the emergence of smart phones, mobile communications and 3G networks is making up the difference.
