[From Peter R, Eric Mann] Thanks boys for sending me the link to this almost at the same time. OK, I know we have a large numbers of readers in the New York, New Jersey Metro area, and Engadget are reporting that the NY subway is going to be wired for cellphones, now in regards to privacy I am not sure whether this is a good or bad thing, I'll let you all decide. "After holding out for years, MTA has finally caved to the public's demand for cellphones in New York subways. New York City Transit has announced a deal with Transit Wireless, who's forking out $46.8 million over 10 years for the privilege of installing service in the 277 underground stations currently lacking coverage. Cell phone providers will have to pay Transit Wireless for their customers to be able to roam onto the subway network, but it's hard to feel sorry for them" The Engadget has the deets on this one.
