Woz Joins Board of VeriLAN

Cities like Philadelphia, St. Louis, Madison, and Milwaukee are all planning for citywide wireless networks which will offer free, seamless wireless Internet access to residents and visitors. This trend is growing and lots of companies are bidding for contracts to provide the wireless clouds. Some are even speculating that Google may get in on the act.

In Portland, Oregon, a company called VeriLAN is bidding to provide the wireless for the city's plans. Today, it was announced that Steve Wozniak has joined their board in an advisory role.

VeriLAN will be up against the behemoth Earthlink, so this will certainly help their image.
