Breaking News! San Francisco has achieved an agreement for citywide Wi-Fi: Nobody said getting Wi-Fi into San Francisco would be easy. Some predicted that negotiation would take forever. If forever is 10 months, they were right. My sources say that an agreement has been reached; more details are forthcoming later today.
EarthLink confirms: "Today, EarthLink and the City of San Francisco reached agreement on the
terms of the contract to build a citywide wireless network." There's no detail in their statement as to the final arrangements for what's free and what's for fee.
