The Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. says it will be deploying a Common Wireless Access System that will allow for greater cellphone coverage in all of its museums and for free wireless access to come to the entire National Mall by 2008.
The system will be phased in over time, with WiFi and extended cellular service to begin this fall and completion expected with the 2008 reopening of the National Museum of American History. Areas designated to have WiFi access include cafeterias, auditoriums, and conference rooms.
