Both the city and the two companies, which submitted a co-proposal, plan to hammer out the details of the pact over the next few weeks, and then construction will begin, according to the city of San Francisco.

The two plan an ad-supported, free Wi-Fi network for the city, along with introducing a $20-a-month service for those who want a faster connection, according to terms of the proposal.

The cable, telco, etc companies are going to fight like hell to keep this down by filling lawsuit after lawsuit.


It might cheaper and easier to provide a superior level of service and security for their $40-$50 a month, but don't try and tell THEM that 😛
