Haha same idea. "Well they already have it wired with camera's so shouldn't be too hard to do"
 
That will be great if it is free or charge for a small fee. If that happen i'll cancel my cell phone contract with data plan and use skype all the way.
 
It'll be cool to have Wifi available everywhere. It is a shame it is in a city like London though..

A shame?
You mean it's a shame they don't have it elsewhere right? Not that the fact London will get it is a shame?
 
if each lamppost is a hotspots, does this mean if i am travelling down the street with 10 lamppost, it needs to disconnect/reconnect at every lamppost?
 
"Radiation Capital of the World" _might_ be a title given in the future, due to health concerns about Wifi. We've installed many Wifi networks for business, and uninstalled many because some are switching back to the traditional cat5 environment because employees are reportedly unable to work near Wifi, which is causing loss of revenue for that business. I'm unconvinced that Wifi is yet safe. The choice is individual, but do a little research first.

no, if they all have the same SID, the connection will handoff from one to another. Or atleast thats how my home repeater works with my iPod
 
"It will be interesting to see what happens to usage once the Olympic games have finished and everyone has flown home."

I believe the population of Greater London is around 12 million, I'm not sure everyone is going to leave after the Olympics!

I could not agree more, Thats why no matter where I live I can always find someone who has not secured their wireless and then use dd-wrt on my linksys to create a repeater network for which all my activity will show up on their ip.
