Free WiFi for flying comedians

The airport in Walla Walla offers free internet access. As does the airport in Yuma. Other major airports that are holding out are Greensboro-High Point, St. Louis, both Washington airports, Raleigh-Durham, San Francisco and Providence. And, contrary to what we said in a recent posting, Philadelphia International is still gouging their customers– they charge their customers exorbitant rates via AT&T and Boingo, but offer it free to college students… at least they offer it free to all on weekends.

Or, if you have the right kind of smart phone (and you’ve downloaded the free PDANet software on your phone and your laptop), you can access the internet anywhere via the 3G network. We did that in our hotel Detroit and in our hotel in Vegas. The speed isn’t always good, and we were often forced to ditch off and hop back on to renew the connection, but it beats paying $11.99 a day!
