Default Bryant Park...

On my way to the user group tour at Microsoft in NYC. Stopped off in the park to check Thoughts. There seem to be about 7 different hotspots around! Wireless heaven! :wink:

This is a much better experience then my first attempt here (if you recall, I was trying to connect using my 548 - almost impossible to read the screen)

This rocks!!! (especially with the mobile version of Thoughts)

Great 2400th post!!!

Steve

I had a similar situation not that long ago. I had heard that Bryant Park was a delight for Wi-Fi'ers and decided to give it a shot. Talk about geeking out!

Default Followup...

From Monday's, 3 November 2003, Baltimore Sun...

Inner Harbor 'hotspot zone' open for business, but honing in on a signal can be challenging

Interesting article. I wonder if that extra popup window makes this unusable with Pocket PCs.
