HIGH SPEED WI-FI INTERNET ACCESS

At the Outrigger Waikiki Hotel where we are staying there is complimentary high speed internet access which I applaud and I hope that before long this will be the norm around the world.
I read in a report in the Honolulu Advertiser this morning that Wi-Fi connections are available on commuter buses in San Francisco while in Arlington, VA, Wi-Fi is available in bus shelters.
And of course inceasingly whole city areas are going wireless.
This is all good stuff for roaming bloggers!
And here at this fine hotel on Waikiki beach all local calls are free, and you can call mainland USA with the first 30 minutes free! In the past I have felt ripped off by having to pay around dollar plus taxes for local calls when in the US (and most other countries too) so this is a welcome development.
