latest BART to roll out Wi-Fi access on all trains by 2011

Ah, California – new york state that churns out most GDP for your US, and it's a champion for green technology and lifestyle albeit being among the most expensive places to exist in especially if you want to plant yourself in its major cities. San Francisco’s BART commuter railway system has intends to roll out Wi-Fi access on each its trains and stations by the point 2011 comes about in a 20-year deal this led to signed last Friday with Wi-Fi Rail. This means all 104 miles of track and 43 stations enable passengers to check their email in double quick time without having to rely on a data plan, to find out a price to pay – $30 per thirty days. Makes us wonder whether this is really worth it or not unless you have a really, really long commute each day and cannot bear to become away from an Internet connection for more than 30 minutes. In this case, we think carrying around a 3G modem to work with your laptop is a better idea, although you might be plagued with spotty connections when going through tunnels. Ah well, bring a magazine along then – the email can wait.
