A big win for free WiFi

FCC: Boston airport can't block airline's Wi-Fi | CNET News.com

Finally, Boston may get a chance to catch up with all of the other places that have free WiFi at the airport, with no thanks to AssPort.

There's nothing like plunking down $7.95 for maybe 30 minutes online while waiting for a flight. (Well, a while back I used to fly Continental out of Boston a lot and it was a lot more than 30 minutes, but anyway...)

In what is supposed to be a public place, it seems absurd to pay for wireless access, especially in a city that's supposed to be a high-tech leader.

Here's hoping this will start a trend.
