city of london to go wifi

"The City of London, one of the biggest financial centres in the world, is to be provided with comprehensive wireless coverage over the entire area. The aim is to make the Square Mile the biggest wireless zone in Europe.
The system is planned to launch in the next few weeks in selected parts of the City with full coverage expected over the next six months. The WiFi network will be installed in a pattern of hotspots using existing street furniture including lamp posts and street signs, allowing the 350,000 or so City workers and visitors with WiFi-enabled devices to access the Internet on streets and in open spaces."

good to see we will be able to play our ds for free when we go to london now .....(i hope they put more up arround london so we can cover most of the centre)

might only effect a few on the site but its still grate news

Meh, everytime a city commits to city-wide wi-fi, no matter how small, it makes the news. I'd like to see my own city on slashdot, but nooooo. Psh, the rednecks wouldn't know how to use the intraweb anyway. And we don't need to enable the preps....

There's an entire county in my area that's going wi-fi, they should have all the major cities done and expanding to the smaller towns and perhaps the rural areas. I wonder if they configure it like a bunch of repeaters where you can drive around and never lose the connection, it makes perfect sense so chances are that's what most of them are doing. Anyone actually been to one of those areas to try it out?

I was watching a programme a little while back where they walked through central Korea, for about a good few miles and they wernt disconnected once. Also of interest, their average there now for internet speed is 100meg.
