Two Intel employees have set up a wi-fi hotspot near the North Pole. It makes sense really. I mean, how else are the elves going to keep up to date on the latest tech toys. Apparently it only works when conditions are favorable, mostly April, which might make the whole thing pointless. But it just goes to show how far the vast arm of the Internet is reaching these days. Entire cities are getting wi-max, which although slow in its creation is going to provide universal Internet access in a few more years (my prediction for whatever that’s worth). Anyways. Next time you are stuck in the North Pole, fret not. Whip out your ultra rugged laptop and surf away.
