"fon" is a network of people who have special fon wifi routers that allow any one with a fon account to use your internet connection like a hot spot. The good thing about fon is that it is free...as long as you buy the $40 wifi router. The bad thing is that it cost 40 bucks. In its current state it probably isn't the best way to pick up wifi around town, but the more people that install a router, the better the service gets. Just imagine if one person every square mile had a fon router. any where you went you could be sure to be close to a hot spot. Thier web site even has a map that shows were in your town fon hotspots are located. It's worth checking out if the phrase "wifi everywhere" gives you the chills. The point is, you should sign up and then tell all your friends about it so that more people have hot spots. Basically I want free wifi everywhere and this is one way it could happen.
p.s. if you really get chills from that, check out hsdpa or wimax on wikipedia.

No links? Source? References? Specs on the fon routers? Where can I buy them?
sorry, try fon.com
and as far as specs go, its just like any other wifi router except there are two networks shown. one is private and the other public.
No better range or anythign? Nothing special?
