I got told late this afternoon that the city of Taipei will be launching Wi-Fi in the city tomorrow, Tuesday, Dec. 20t. The little birdie told me the mayor of Taipei will be using Skype to talk the mayor of Tao Yuan - showing the power of the Skype service via the city’s new Wi-Fi service.
They will be using the recently announced Mac compatible Ipevo free-1 USB phone which Om called me on earlier.
This does not seem to be like the Cloud or Boingo deals at this point, but it's still early and I wouldn't be surprised if Skype pulled off another WiFi deal very soon.
Here's a story that updates my post of yesterday.
