Re: Toronto Hydro to offer city-wide wireless

I don't think it's about giving up a faster wired connection as much as it's about offering access to people who've never had it or have been stuck on dial-up.

Toronto Hydro WiFi could be $10 a month but I'm still not giving up my Sympatico line.

Clearly the original intent of all of this is to allow command and control of their smart meters. If they can sell Internet access as well I say go for it.

Don't the smart meters use cellular for access? Thats what I read somewhere.
