(2007-05-01) Fon Time Warner

Tom Evslin on the deal between Time Warner and FON. Among FON's financial backers are Skype and Google. There is already a Skype phone which works at FON hotspots... Back to Time Warner: I don't really know their strategy but it makes sense that they would let their subscribers get the extra benefit of free WiFi roaming and all the cheap phone calls this will quickly lead to in order to advantage themselves over their phone company competitors in selling Internet access. (hmm, Google Phone VoIP Over [[WiFi]] via FON?)
