About OPs post on boingo -

# of Boingo Hotspots in San Francisco : Only 1! (in a tiny hotel)
# of Boingo Hotspots in the US: 6474
# of Boingo Hotspots in South Korea: 12516

Since I dont have wi-fi at home -
% of time I use my 770 for web browsing about 3%
% of time I use my 770 for RSS and email 7%
% of time I use 770 offline - games, video 90%

I had thought I would use it more because there would be many more free wi-fi hotspots. I don't even care if it has flash 9 or can do Youtube, because I almost never have online access anyway.

Okay so I am cheap and don't have a cell phone I can tether or even high speed access at home, but just wanted to point out 1) there are very few free wi-fi spots in downtown SF (there are some though), and 2) after initially reading this forum for a few weeks I had the wrong impression that if I bought a NIT I would be web surfing and using VOIP away from home.

I do love the 770 and look forward to using it in hotels when I travel, but lack of public wi-fi spots limits its usefulness (ability to surf).
