TODAYonline reports that Singapore will have free wireless internet from almost anywhere on the island by next September.

(via Dvorak Uncensored » Singapore, one giant hotspot — FREE!)

I’m writing this post on free wireless internet in San Francisco, another supposed hotspot of the technology.

My experience here close to silicon valley is that wireless internet, free or not, is inconsistent and unreliable. Weird things go wrong. It is frustrating to work with large files such as video and photos.

My free wireless connection at the glassy Apple Store was no better.

I just want to plug-in.
