Re: Toronto Hydro to offer city-wide wireless

Some thoughts and observations.....

According to news reports, the wifi will be confined to a 6 square km area in the downtown core.

It will be free for the first 6 months

I wonder about 'dead zones' within the coverage area. Will Toronto Hydro add an extra access point if a subscriber complains they live in a shadow and there is a weak/no signal?

As for Ted Rogers being upset, I say too damn bad. His original business was cable. If he can add commercial radio, satellite and wireless, Toronto Hydro can diversify as well.
