Wi-fi In The Third World

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

The number of companies offering cheap, fast, reliable, wireless internet is also on the rise as people seek out alternatives to broad band and fiber optics.

Or write an email while sitting in the park. The rise of wireless internet is also providing the less fortunate with what most of the developed world takes for granted.
