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!!!

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! :D

From Monday's, 3 November 2003, Baltimore Sun (http://www.sunspot.net)...

The headline is...City's free wireless access put to test
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.

I havent read it yet but will soon, I need to get ready for work. I am thinking about checking it out and seeing what kind of a signal i can get.
I moved from texas so havent even been to the harbor yet :wink:

Baltimore, or more precisely Ball' mer Hon, is a great city... Crabs and cold beer on the dock during the season, Maryland or John Hopkins Lacrosse in the Spring, Orioles baseball at Camden Yard (even if their losing), Fells Point pub crawling...well you get the idea. Check out Captain James in Fells Point, its at the corner of Aliceanna and Boston streets, for a great cheap breakfast. I have lived in that area, ie. Columbia, College Park, Fort Meade, etc. a number of times over the last thirty-five years. I last lived in Catonsville, just across the City/Baltimore County line for six years until my wife and I moved back to Oklahoma to retire. Thank god you moved out of Texas... 8)

Good luck with the WiFi access downtown. Let us know if it worked for you...

Insulting states is inappropriate, and talking about cities is off-topic.

Well, you've obviously never been to an OU-Texas football game then... 8)
