AT&T on Tuesday announced plans to add more public WiFi hotspots in major markets. It has already put one in San Francisco’s downtown Embarcadero Center. The wireless giant will also expand its existing Times Square WiFi hot zone and add new ones near Rockefeller Center and St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. These moves follow pilot installations of hotspots in different cities in the United States. The additional WiFi zones will allow AT&T wireless subscribers in the immediate area to access high-speed Internet services through their mobile devices.
I appreciate you trying to entertain us all with the up-to-date news, but you are dead wrong on a few issues starting with, "wifi not being able to support voice."
You need to do your research my friend before you exhaust an audience with seemingly new information. Further, AT&T has the most reliable network PERIOD. I'm a VZ customer and definitely believe that VZ doesn't have problems like AT&T does because they don't have an iPhone. 40% of ALL the data used for AT&T comes from 2% of the TOTAL iPhone users. And this is primarily a problem in congested areas... Exactly where mesh WiFi networks come into play.
And the speeds available on these mesh WiFi networks is incredible. No more having to stay in a corner of a cafe, crammed with others, to jump onto WiFi. Large cities are going to get blanketed with WiFi here shortly.
Check out Ruckus Wireless news and what companies like Towerstream (TWER) are capable of doing with WiFi... Think you should!
