If it ever does happen it wont be good for this business the only way theyll ever do anything like that is if they have total control over what is accessed.

ROFL.. here you go, hack in.... same sort of service went live in Sydney a month or 2 ago

*edit: For those intereested in how the Phily one might work, check it out... the modem runs on batteries too so you can use it fully mobile, I'm on the verge of ordering one just to play with it I think the possibilities are so cool.

*edit2 I just realised this isn't quite the same as that Phily system described now i understand the article better.. this one uses a propriatory modem and Phily is talking wifi.. that is amazing! Hope it spreads.
