A mobile OS vendor who is paying for free WiFi for any user BUT his direct competitor. WiFi is an interesting space these days. It will be interesting to see how this one ends. There is also another service called Wavespot that don’t just provide free Internet at business locations, but also help them market their services over Social Media.

They should make it clear and offer a onetime charge option!

Google and Boingo are interesting players, but at the end of the day, there are others as well – MNOs, wireline carriers and the town hall to name a few: http://blogs.amdocs.com/voices/2012/08/14/who-will-win-the-wifi-olympics/
