Customers of Time Warner Cable's Road Runner internet service in New York City have a reason to exult. All of them are now eligible for free Wi-Fi internet access across New York. There are literally thousands of free hotspots scattered all over NYC for them, thanks to a deal between Time Warner and Cablevision, which means that customers of both “will be able to access free, unlimited Wi-Fi services in each other’s New York City metro service areas, allowing for a fast Internet connection at designated Wi-Fi zones.” A valid Road Runner username and password is enough to enjoy free Wi-Fi. Of course, there is a dedicated page to help locate hotspots.

If the 3G network with a wireless wifi would be better!
WiFi signals are available almost everywhere but most of them are useless to us as they are Secured connections that required a password to access. And most
WiFi Adapters in the market and in Laptops have a range of only 20 to 30 meters, limiting the number of WiFi connections available to you.

NYC is a big place, 5 boroughs, 8 million people. A handfull of hotspots, 3 - 4 in midtown a few on LIRR and 1 - 2 in queens does not NYC make. Brooklyn? Bronx? Staten ISland?

No doubt this is in responce to what Verizon offers to their FiOS customers for some time now. Btw we all know unlimited is never unlimited when it comes to TWC.
