You people have totally lost it. CO makes *everyone* inclucing PMs pay for their club. That's a big difference from DL just right there. I personally think it's great they teamed up with T-Mobile, because it's a very reliable service. If the cost is that big of a deal, and you spend that much time in the airport your company should really let you expense the monthly cost of the hotspot service. Mine does, and it's great if I'm somewhere that my hotel doesn't have high speed. I can go to the local Borders or Starbucks and get service usually. Setting up a wireless network and maintaining it in an airport is not a cheap proposition. Can you imagine some of the interferences you would get? Not to mention wherever I have sat in a CRC, I get excellent signal. Some of those free Hamtpon inns etc. with wireless don't always have consistent signal or service. You get what you pay for. If you want free, dialup to your company's provider!
