The Chron and the Associated Press are reporting that San Francisco has chosen a joint bid by Google and Earthlink to blanket the city with wifi.
The likely outcome:- Free, slow-ish wifi access citywide (ad-supported)
- Faster, no-ad wifi citywide (for a nominal fee, perhaps $20/mo.)
- Timeline: According to the Chron article, they could have this up and going by the end of 2006
More thoughts as actual details become available...
