The contract is only for ticket offices, escalators and platforms
because it would have required major construction work to have added
connectivity to the network's tunnels.
From July 2012 all Tube passengers will initially be able to connect
to the internet for free.
After the Olympic and Paralympic Games it will be a pay-as-you-go
service.
Bloody BT Openzone, Sky the Cloud, and now Virgin have carved up
what was free wifi, now it's only free for their customers.
Eh? How do you make that out? Wifi hasn't even been available on the
Underground (excluding very limited trials) until now. And I
certainly wouldn't want my ticket price to rise to pay for it!
Sorry i don't mean on the underground, i was thinking of all the coffee
shops and pubs a couple of years ago i was able to use completely free
until the big networks frightened them with stories of abuse
and sold them their secure systems.
I haven't seen an open wifi in months, all WPA now
