You are right on point.

Which goes back to my whining about the whole roll-out process. Apparently we should have widespread wifi service in most major U.S. cities by the end of next year. I can understand how telecom's are starting to feel reluctant to carry out their plans to toss routers all over the place, knowing full well that they're competing with businesses large and small.
The advantage that the teleco's will have is that they'll be able to offer instant service in most places, which for convenience, will cause people to use it. Most people won't think twice about using a bundled service with say, their cellphone plan, if they can get on the net whenever and where ever they want -- eliminating the "gotta run to Starbucks" effect we feel now.
Btw, have you guys seen
Wifile? Cool new product.
