Wireless Freedom is Here. Part 2.
This is supposed to be a positive “wireless” post and I don’t think the message has been advertised well enough yet: Cogeco, yes - the cable Internet provider - has started to offer free wireless access to its existing customers! To my knowledge, it is the first “wired” provider to offer free Wi-Fi access to its customers base, in Canada. It is a great start, being available in the Oakville-Burlingon-Hamilton area for now. I use Cogeco as my secondary Internet provider, in Niagara Falls, so I can’t wait to take my MacBook to Starbucks, once they expand to the Niagara Region as well. This is the original email I was sent:
Enjoy High Speed Internet with new Cogeco Wi-Fi Hotspots.
Spring is a busy time of year. And when you’re always on the go, you’ll want to be able to easily access the Internet and your email account. Now you can with the new Cogeco wireless network. It offers a variety of Wi-Fi hotspots to Cogeco High Speed Internet customers throughout Burlington, Oakville and Hamilton. So you can still be online when you’re out and about.
Cogeco - c’mon, this it not a two-line story! You can do better to get the message out. Wireless freedom is back! :)
