Fla. rest stops to become Wi-Fi hot spots

Rest stops to become Wi-Fi hot spots
Roadside welcome centers, rest stops and weigh stations along major Florida roads will be Internet stops in addition to pit stops under a transportation department plan.

The Florida Department of Transportation is planning to install between 50 and 60 Wi-Fi hot spots at roadside facilities.

The free hot spots will be along major roads like I-95 and Florida's Turnpike.

Department officials are in talks with Austin-based Coach Connect, which provides a similar service in Oregon and Washington and at RV parks nationwide.

A department spokesman said the service will not cost the state or motorists anything and that the company will make its money off advertising.

Users will be kept to a 30-minute time limit.

You better surf that pr0n fast!
Those are pretty good numbers 50-60 of the states 83 rest-stops and 22 weigh stations.
Think MikeP was doing some wifi already @ a couple weigh stations.
