[edit] List of schools using wireless technologies
I don't think this section should be in there. Pretty much any college or university these days has wireless capabilities (correct me if I'm wrong, I don't know the facts), so if the list were complete its members would number in the thousands. In that case, this is definitely not the place to put it. Perhaps it would be appropriate to create a separate list article for this?
- I agree, so I removed the list. Besides, since most schools/universities have access restrictions to their networks (allowing free access for students/employee, and no access for others) I don't think they count as hotspots. tobixen 16:45, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
Also, I think this article should be renamed Hotspot (Wireless) or Wireless Hotspot. Thoughts? - MescalineBanana 04:32, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed. Also, someone added the cleanup tag, but can they expand on what specifically is wrong? Aaron Lawrence 18:45, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Spam links
Probably most of the previous links on the hotspot page should be removed, but perhaps not all of them? I didn't check any of the links, but if there exists any good "hotspot locator database" on the net, at least 1-3 of them should be listed in the links section. I think.
Apropos, the wireless community network article is really mostly just an overgrown link collection ...
[edit] Book Advertising
I dont think that the book that is listed should be listed. It looks like someone just wanted to do a bit of advertising.
[edit] Nintendo DS Compatibility
This article should have some information on the compatibility of Nintendo's Nintendo DS with Wi-Fi connections. Nintendo has stated that Hotspots are going to be a big deal in broadening game experiences. --Nin 23:26, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
