We cant, there is no one who has set up the infrastructure all around the
city. 

We did (well Mikal asked on our behalf) ask this list if people could tell
us where all the publically available wireless hotspots were so we could put
them in the conference program or tell people where they are or similar.

However the citilan thing in adelaide set up there by internode is not
planned for Canberra roll out for a while yet.

Of course anyone interested could play around with that wireless broadband
thing (Bob and Mikal know what it is called, I forget)

	See You
