Wi-Fi bonanza

Philly hopes to have wireless internet access as part of a pioneering municipal internet service. Not surprisingly, Verizon and Comcast are protesting that they'll lose customers to the public utility, and they're arguing that the "government doesn't do service well."

But it's acceptable that relaxed FCC rules have allowed service provider consolidation, meaning fewer choices for customers, and price increases tripling the rate of inflation?

Side note: I wish they had wi-fi on airplanes...I've got a 5 hour plane ride ahead of me tomorrow morning. Meh, maybe it's better I won't be near a computer, it'll give me a chance to catch up on reading.
