I just heard from my friend Phil Baker that Glenn Fleishman has blogged that:
"Humanitarian Wi-Fi from T-Mobile
T-Mobile hasn’t put out a press release, but is quietly spreading the word about free Wi-Fi in Florida: With people losing homes or stuck far away from home, T-Mobile has opened its hotspot service for free in Florida through the end of the day on Monday. T-Mobile operates service in Starbucks, Kinko’s, Borders, and various airline lounges. Wherever these locations are operating, the service will be free to help folks communicate or just find out more about where they can go next.
Of course, these services require a computer or handheld, but I’m guessing that people with that equipment in those locations will be happy to help their fellow Floridians or fellow human beings."
The tricky part will finding open Hot Spots with both T-Mobile and power.
I am a loyal T-Mobile customer, maybe it is flat Florida that makes a difference, but I think their technology and service are excellent.
