Spokane, WA to launch nation’s largest WiFi zone

It will be the largest urban Wi-Fi zone in the United States, said Bob Conley, a founder of Vivato, the company that made the antennas for both installations

Vivato’s press release mentions the service will be useful not only to casual downloaders.
The downtown “Hot Zone” will improve city services by facilitating intelligent policing, quicker fire and rescue response, and will support e-government initiatives and a more productive mobile workforce.
