Industry Profile - Public Access Internet Terminals
"World wide WIFI revenues are expected to grow from $7 billion in 2003 to over $44 billion by 2008, at a compounded annual rate of 44 percent!"
New technology called Wireless Fidelity or WiFi is changing the way the Internet is being delivered to the public from bulky stand alone Internet terminals to portable hand held devices like Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) and laptops.
WiFi technology lets laptop and PDA users use radio frequencies to make high speed wireless connections to the Internet. Laptops and other wireless devices use a special antenna to communicate with hot spots areas that have a wireless Internet signal with a radius of 300 feet. Hot spots may be found in cafes, hotels, airports and other public areas, The transmitting antenna is usually linked to a land-based Internet connection.
Jupiter Research projects about 5 million people in the U.S. are using WiFi and by 2004 predicts over 28 million while there will be over 10,000 WiFi hotspots in the USA and 25,000 worldwide by the end of 2003. Research firm Gartner predicts by 2006 there will be 89,000 public WiFi access points and more than 99 million WiFi users worldwide.
Several locations that have Hotspots include Starbucks, Borders, Kinkos, McDonalds and major airports and hotels mostly in waiting areas and lobbies. Cisco is designing a system that will allow users to surf the net while on a plane. Rental prices range $2.99 for 15 minutes to $29.99 for unlimited use or $49.99 for a month.
Largest WiFi network providers that install and operate WiFi networks and operating retail stores include: T-Mobile (Starbucks 2,300, Borders 400, some airports), Wayport (500 hotels, Airports, McDonalds - 300), STSN (mostly Marriotts), Toshiba (McDonalds, UPS Stores, Flying J Truck Stops - 165), and Stay Online (hotels).

"It's coming. By the year 2005, more than 80% of professional notebook PCs will have Wi-Fi 802.11 wireless LAN interface, and the worldwide installed base of wireless LAN networking cards will exceed 88.3 million according to analyst projections. That means more than 88 million people will be looking for companies that offer wireless broadband service at their locations to allow them to connect to the Internet at will."
