Startup Idea: Cheap WiFi Near Hotels | sfgate.com
When you think about it, it's really odd that the cheaper a hotel is, the more likely it's likely to have free wifi, and the fancier it is, the more likely it is to have expensive WiFi. It's not odd when you think about the concept of capturing consumer surplus, and also when you realize that hotel managers are probably often middle aged people who view wireless iInternet as a strange luxury, not a necessity of life like us. This would be like a hotel in the 19th century thinking it's extravagant to ask for running water.
