Tech

Open

Open wireless access points are such a temptation.

This evening I pulled into a leafy residential street in Maidenhead. Out came the laptop and the mobile phone, ready to dial up and retrieve my email the slow way. But before I'd had a chance to connect I heard the familiar chime and noticed the "unread messages" flash on the Mail icon. My Mac had sniffed out wireless broadband emanating from one of the nearby houses, hooked up and saved me the trouble of using the mobile.

Will we see these affluent suburbs turning into temporary office space for mobile workers?

The future?

I've spent much of today in Reading. It would be quite a nice place to live wouldn't it?
