The city of Xi’an, capital of Shaanxi province, China, will get 1,000 Wi-Fi hotspots: Although the press release describes provider Along as turning Xi’an into a “Wi-Fi city,” it’s not a city-wide Wi-Fi network so much as an extensive network of hotspots. The city covers nearly 900 square miles, and 1,000 access points doesn’t provide enough density for residential use, of course. The release says 7m people live there; Encyclopedia Britannica cites a 2003 estimate of city population at 2.7m. The company will add a number of hotspots at universities and “tertiary institutions,” by which I have no idea what’s meant.
