Question Is this a novelty or a real business tool

Guys 'Telstra' our phone company here, have recently installed a wireless (WiFi) unit in my restaurant.

This allows a laptop computer user who has wireless installed, to just open the laptop and go on line. They need to be within 50 yards of the unit.

Do you guys have this facility available (I know you are years ahead of us in the technology). Importantly do you see customers using this facility in restuarnts, cafe etc..



Or was it a passing novelty phase and people have gone back to looking out the window or reading a magazine with their coffee.

It is all the rage in airports in China. When I was there last week three people around me were hammering away the entire time we waited...

I went to the WC and guy in the cubicle next to me was on line or doing something..
