Mickey-D's does WiFi

One hour's free Internet access in trial locations, with combo meals. Another indicator that the future of WiFi hotspotting is an amenity or bundle-in with other services, rather than as a standalone service. Short Boingo. Long Cometa.

Update: See the related post by Sifry. He has it exactly right about truck rolls. One thing most ISPs don't know how to do is field support. They're used to getting the customers dropped off at the front door on a telco PRI. Whoever can put together a least-cost package of WiFi technology, field install and support, and customer service has a winner. Like I said, long Cometa.
