Great Couples (part III)

Google  & Fon   (the Google link is intentional)

This was/is a little surprising, but I suppose when you are the size of Google, fingers and pies are not limited to the usual number of digits.
It makes a huge amount of sense, and gives Fon credibility to bring the ISPs on board.

I'm looking for another Great Couple over the next few months, which will be Fon & Netgear, or Fon & Linksys. Once you buy a router with Fon already built in, then the spread of the Fon movement will rapidly gather momentum.

As I have said in several previous posts , this is about local access in the places you go on a regular basis, not so much about going to another town or country. The ability to get access in your local supermarket, or school, or bar, takes presence to another level and one which is worth a lot of money to advertisers.
