FON SAVES THE DAY

Big city blogger offers thanks to unknown Fonero in small town

Richard Allan, Head of Government Affairs for UK and Ireland, and
political blogger, offered thanks on his blog to a Fonero in the small
town of Bejar, Spain whose FON WiFi signal allowed Richard to finish
some urgent business and get back to enjoying his holiday. According to
Richard, "the blog underestimates my desperation at needing to access my
work email for an urgent task. This was casting a cloud over my whole
holiday. I spent hours trying to find some connectivity and FON really
did save the day. Once I saw the FON access point in Bejar I thought I
should be OK, but the service was even better than expected - cheap and
very easy to use."

Here is what to expect from the next generation of FON routers. Thanks
to a USB port, and a growing selection of free open-source applications,
the La Fonera 2.0 will let you control data streaming without even
having to turn on your computer. While the La Fonera 2.0 manages uploads
and downloads at home, you and your laptop will be free to do anything
and go anywhere else. The La Fonera 2.0 will also allow you to share
printers, scanners, webcams and other USB devices. And, as with all FON
routers, the La Fonera 2.0 will allow you to make money and roam the
world for free at FON Spots.

We've kept the La Fonera 2.0 as beta while our techies perfect its
features. But, full functionality for everyone is coming soon. So, get
ready!
