Some serious WiFi going on in France

France Telcom reports that it
not has 2 million WiFi customers on its network, Livebox. Livebox feeds phone calls over DSL, cable television and of
course broadband internet. When France has 2 millions folks on a wireless broadband network shuttling many types of
entertainment and data around at the same time, this is a good sign. Or, as Bill Engvall has said, "
here's your sign".
France is a
relatively small country by population standards, so 2 million customers is quite an achievement here. Maybe this is a
sign of things to come on other European countries?
