(See disclosure notice at the end of this post.)

Fon continues to try to build critical mass by offering wifi routers at a price waaaay below their cost. The current version of the router, La Fonera, actually is quite a nice object. Today—and I think only today—you can get one for free if you live in the US. It’s Fon’s first birthday today…

(Disclosure: I am on Fon’s board of advisors and have been granted some stock options. But I joined the board because I think Fon is a crazy idea that could help make free wifi far more widely available, including and especially in poorer parts of the world.) [Tags: fon wifi]
