Coming Soon to City, Wi-Fi on the Go
(WSJ) — Livery cars are on the verge of becoming roaming wireless-Internet transmitters under a New York venture capitalist’s plan to broaden web access.
Alex Mashinsky, who is also part of a joint venture to provide Internet and cellphone service in subway stations, expects to equip 1,000 cars with Wi-Fi by early fall. They’ll provide free, advertising-supported wireless Internet access to their passengers and people within about 400 feet. After the initial launch, Mr. Mashinsky plans to expand the number of vehicles with Wi-Fi.
