For those of you that don’t know, FON is like a somewhat Marxist WiFi movement. The gist of it is, you buy one of their WiFi routers, and you share all or part of your bandwidth wirelessly. In return, you gain access to everyone else on the FON network’s bandwidth, so if you travel, and pick up a FON hotspot, you can access it for free, or if you are stingy with your bandwidth, you can pay for access, just like a Starbucks or something of that nature.
So what is Steve Jobs doing meeting with the creator of FON? Hopefully he is working on a deal to bring the technology over here and make it more widespread. Do you know how much of a blessing it would be to be able to access the web from my Touch without having to stop and try and find an open, public, wifi network?
