Free WiFi in the Air...

While on a business trip in the Netherlands yesterday, I stopped to eat at De Lucht ('The Air', or 'The Sky'), a gas station/shop/restaurant on the A2 highway.  I was pleasantly surprised to see this sign:

(free unlimited mobile internet, another first for 'De Lucht'!)

That, and they had a Burger King franchise...  Man, why can't we have reststops like these in Belgium!  I think I'll be stopping there more often in the future.

These guys at 'De Lucht' have sensed where the wind is blowing from.  No way I'm going to cough up six or seven euro for an hour of WiFi at a reststop, as so many other places seem to think/hope.  But I will visit a place that offers this service for free a lot more frequently, I'd even plan my stops around this to a reasonable degree: if I can stop now or in 50 kilometres at 'De Lucht', I'd go the extra distance for this.

And WiFi is so cheap anyway, if they gain a dozen customers by this, they'll probably have recouped their investment already.
