City of Cerritos going all Wireless

[ctcsoft]

Wish it was my city doin this...

Anyone know how long before most major cities do this? Cerritos never had DSL or high speed cable internet. Now the whole city will be all wireless..

pretty cool. I'm sure this will spread to other cities once the new long range wireless products come out.

This will come handy at the cerritos mall.

I just saw this on cnn, too.. pretty cool. I live near Carmenita and South.. hope there's a decent signal in that area!

I wonder what kind of speeds it's going to have, especially with all the people that live in the city..

The first time I see someone driving while surfing the net I'm going to lose it.

So how much per year is this actually costing the city?

EDIT: and is this an open wireless network, or do city residents have to subcribe to it (presumably at the $35/month rate the city pays)?
