USA Today Discovers WiFi

In various circles lately, I've been hearing questions about whether or not the great, mysterious "general public" knows what WiFi is yet. As more and more retail stores offer up WiFi access (whether for free, or at a price) and more and more news articles appear about the technology, it seems harder and hard to believe that people haven't heard about WiFi at all. The latest is that USA Today has done an article about WiFi. There's nothing new in the article - they talk about Starbucks and even the Schlotzky's Deli story we recently spoke about. They also point out that many places have free WiFi hotspots, which is something that many other major press articles about WiFi seem to downplay.
