Works fine if you don't try and make it free... Check out skynet of spokane
http://www.spokaneskynet.com/
had them for a few years... Hotspots are HUNDREDS of square miles, and work
with laptops/pdas/etc with 802.11b.... Does cost a few bucks a month, but
for the few years I used it (till I sold my house and moved), worked great
with stuff many people already have.... Wonder why they try and make things
supposedly free, or require you to buy something new?
