Now we lucky scandinavians (Link to Finnish, Swedish, Danish pages) can order a free FON access point. By joining to FON you promise to keep your FON AP active and to share it for other foneros.
I definitely will join. Has someone tested this with S60 Wifi phones?

Hi.
Yes, quite nice indeed. But what I'd like from FON would be a service that tells for each country they want to reach if I brake my contract allowing others to use my DSL connection or if it's ok. Once FON users reach a critical mass, I'm sure no ISP would want to be marked as "bad" on FON site, and this would even help the whole project. Instead when I've asked me they told me to check myself. I like the idea of FON, but I will not use it until some lawyer tells me I won't get in trouble because of it.
Posted by: Alfonso | November 30, 2006 07:26 PMInformation about local ISP rules would be really good to have in FON pages. My feeling is that generally speaking rules are against this type of sharing.
My personal approach is quite simple. I believe in some things. I feel this is right thing to do and pushes world to the right direction. Current laws might say something but it doesn't mean that the laws or regulations are right. In that case we could freeze all the laws and lay off the parliament. I'm ready to take consequences if I'm braking the rules. Probably the best is that as many as possible joins, then it becomes more difficult to stop this.
If FON get's bought by big names, gets questionable commercial flavor, it will fly immediately out of the window to the zero temperature Guld of Finland. The whole idea is giving something out and getting something back.
