An end to Wi-Fi hotspots???
According to this article Ericsson predicts the end of the Wi-Fi wireless hotspots. It makes sense for a large Telco vendor to make this argument, but it really doesn't hold water as an argument. As free Wi-Fi hotspots abound and the price of paid Wi-Fi service approaches zero with a food/beverage purchase, how will the trumph free and semi-anonymous access? For some people the free factor makes it worth the annoyance of spotty coverage or annoying captive portals.
