Folks in the city of Philadelphia with WiFi Pocket PC game tendencies have reason to celebrate in the US.The project WiFi Philadelphia initiative has finally gotten the green light, as reported on the BBC News site.
City-wide wireless will soon become a reality for these residents.
I first made mention of WiFi PDA game multiplayer hopes in the WiFi Hotspots Gaming Battle Intensifies article.
This was not without some trouble, however, as Verizon attempted to crush the project.
Shifty political bureaucrats liasing with telecommunications honchos are blamed, according to the BBC news source.
They were defeated in Philadelphia, but amended the laws in the rest of the state. It is now a legislative no-no to set up a WiFi community.
PDA game fanatics in Philadelphia waited for this drama's outcome.
It will deliver cheap WiFi to the tune of $10 USD ($11.61 CDN) to $20 depending on income level.
This will possibly prove to be a positive for the Pocket PC gaming community as more highly rated multiplayer downloads like Warfare Incorporated or Snails 2.6 come to fruition to pander to WiFi game demand.
In the interim, Pocket PC game aficionados are waiting patiently to catch up to the Nintendo DS in terms of simplicity and availability of WiFi game downloads.
