San Francisco Wi-Fi On Hold
Filed in archive Wi-Fi by jeff goldman on May 15, 2007

The Register's Dan Goodin today reports that the Google/EarthLink Wi-Fi network in San Francisco has been delayed yet again now that the city's Budget and Finance Committee has voted to postpone proceedings until July 11.
"Since it was finalized in January, the plan has sharply divided San Francisco's elected officials," Goodin writes. "It calls for EarthLink to pay the city $2 million over four years for the right to build, own and maintain a Wi-Fi network that would be ubiquitous throughout the hilly, seven-mile by seven-mile city. EarthLink would be permitted to sell a 1 Mbps service for $22 per month, but would also be required to offer a free service that offers 300 Kbps speed."
