Free WiFi
Sort of.
I'm posting from my ninth-floor room here at the Century Park Hotel. When I checked in earlier, I read the promo poster at reception that WiFi is available in the rooms for Php150 per hour. Man, that's 50% more expensive than Airborne Access.
But, but, but... as I was messing around with my lappy, it detected three (!) unsecured APs. I tried one, and after a few tweaking with the IP settings, I was online.
Before I checked in, I was ready to use dialup instead. I even got to borrow a friend's dialup access code to Infocom (free from 12 midnight to 8 am). Good thing I can ditch that now -- city calls here are available for a "minimal" fee. The cheapskate in me just won't subscribe to that. ;)
