Still, roaming.... Ugh.]]>Sep 20th 2007 1:14PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/
Thank God we have iPods to drown out the annoying people]]>Sep 20th 2007 1:34PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/
When I was working in Manhattan earlier this year and using the N,R,W lines between City Hall and 8th St. I could use EVDO IN THE MOVING TRAIN from the time it approached a station until a few seconds after it pulled away. I think I had success in/around stations on other trench-type lines, including the 4,5,6.

So once this goes in we'll be hit with a roaming fee for something we can get for free now???

Maybe the American carriers can discover that they can make a killing on SMS on the trains, eventually.

Maybe even American train riders will discover that texting (IM/or SMS) goes a long way in chatting with folks in the midst of all that noise during a boring commute.

Maybe Los Angeles's subways will also wake up and hear about this within the next century.

Seriously.. just to get "emergency calling". You'd think somebody can sue big bucks for this since pay phones don't really exist anymore.

F'ing wow!]]>Sep 22nd 2007 6:14AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/20/new-yorks-subway-stations-to-be-wired-for-cellphones/Sep 22nd 2007 4:07PM
