Hi,
News clip, that could be useful for all of us.
O2 to launch free Wi-Fi hotspot network
Taking on BT and The Cloud, the mobile operator plans to give
customers and non-customers alike access to free Wi-Fi via 15,000
hotspots around the UK

This makes me laugh - I sent back one BT router because it did not
allow you to turn off the open Wi-Fi access (luckily I had a slightly
earlier one which allowed this to be switched off).
My broadband is slow enough as it is, let alone with others tapping
into my Wi-Fi.
I wonder how many other people are actually willing to accept slower
broadband to provide these Wi-Fi hotspots to anyone passing?
Hi Rich,
It seems that O2 are proposing a rival system of WiFi hot spots ... if
it ever gets put in place.
My local BTFon hot spot is located at the local McDonalds ... :-)
