:said by antiphishing :In my opinion, the city should not be getting involved in wireless internet access.
The majority of the people in this area are elderly who don't want change and have no interest in WIFI internet.
agreed,one of the last things WB needs is WIFI. I got a nice chuckle when I read that headline. Its not just the elderly population that has no interest in WIFI, I know more than a few 20-30 yr olds who don't have a computer...nor want one. IMO this topic shouldn't be thought about by WB for another generation, at least. Maybe then more than a handful or 2 of ppl will actually want/use it. I'd really like to see a street poll of how many ppl actually know what WIFI is.

After my schooling is done, count me into the second group. PA isn't even on my radar for a job. Especially not when my counselor tells me that job placement in my field (double major in Comp Sci and Network Admin) is 9-12 months. I'm not sure how that stacks up to the rest of the nation, but to me that seems pretty damn long. Although even if it weren't that long, I highly doubt I'd stay anyway.
The city of Wilkes Barre needs WIFI like Hazleton needs a illegal alien ordinance. Spanish anyone !
