Yahoo is said to be considering to offer wireless access for customers to use Yahoo's instant messaging software through a downloadable add-on, called Yahoo Messenger On-the-Road. Yahoo is randomly
polling users about their interest in the new feature. If this service is ever launched, users will be given unrestricted access to the network for $7.95 a month, or two hours for $2.95. However, access would be free to users wishing only to use Yahoo Messenger. Google is also testing a service - codenamed
Google Wi-Fi. In November, Google
announced that they would be offering free Wi-Fi in Mountain View, California.
