Wi-Fi is short for wireless fidelity.
No it's not.
Wi-Fi Alliance coined the term wireless fidelity.

So what's your point? Nothing I have said disagrees with your article. Wi-Fi Alliance coined the term wireless fidelity.

Didn't mean to hit reply to you Rob See Profile, sorry.

Exactly, I can't use Cox and Bellsouth anywhere and everywhere in the city without crossing into a grey area of the law... Sometimes I need internet access for my laptop so I can pull up my location and get directions to another location when I'm lost (it does happen for locals, oddly enough).

Earthlink eliminates that problem.
