When the WiFi Bus hits town
Filed in archive Wireless by Jayvee Fernandez on March 07, 2007

So will you be on it? From the outside, the bus displays the looks of any traditional bus - four wheels, a driver, luggage compartment, flatscreen TV, wall sockets ... waitaminute! Hold it right there.
Apart from the interesting amenities such as a mini kitchen and an entertainment center at the back, the bus is equipped with wireless Internet access allowing you to surf through the 5 hour bus trip:
But the real coup de grace is the fact that the entire bus has Wi-Fi during the entire five-hour journey between Tallinn, Estonia, to Riga, Latvia. That makes this rig likely the first international cross-border Wi-Fi-enabled bus line. Better still, the cost of connecting to the internet is included in the $40 one-way ticket. [source]
Pretty soon we will be seeing commercially available portable wireless hotspots. Every car will have one, thus making the possibilities for WiMAX more feasible everywhere.
