I parted company with £69.99 today to purchase Three’s 3G / WiFi router, the Huawei D100. I wish I hadn’t.
I’ve used it for an hour and decided it’s going back to the shop. I may just throw it through the door and hurl abuse, but I hope to have calmed down enough to go in [...]

I’ve blogged about Devicescape before - it’s a simple software client that manages WiFi connections for mobile devices across private and public WiFi hotspots.

Just wanted to flag up something I stumbled across while looking for a new router which might appeal [...]
I want WiFi, like right now.
I’m sitting here testing out a Nokia E66 (expect the review later this week), and I’m looking at the Maps function, and amusing myself at having Facebook on my phone. And I’m angry, at two things; that poor excuse of “speed”, and the ridiculousness of the cost.

This poster is advertised at Liverpool Street Station as people come out of the underground (’the subway’). I like seeing proprietors advertising free WiFi - I think it’s a boon for many. I actually filled out a survey with the McDonalds system, powered by The Cloud - I congratulated them for launching the [...]
Continue ReadingI was walking past the McDonalds in Oxford Street, at the Oxford Circus, when I saw a ‘Free WiFi’ sticker. I’ve walked by a few other restaurants recently and been surprised by the amount of folk sat in there munching away on a Big Mac with their laptops out, browsing the web, clearly using [...]
