Anaheim Launches Wi-Fi Network

Ed Oswald writes over on BetaNews:

The city of Anaheim officially launched its wireless network on Thursday In cooperation with EarthLink. The ISP has announced two plans for usage, including occasional use and continuous access plans.

To support the Anaheim network and other Wi-Fi projects around the country, EarthLink has added a Wi-Fi option to its line of products, which include a modem, along with eight e-mail accounts and the company's malware protection tools. That package will cost $21.95 USD per month.

For those who plan to only use the Wi-Fi network occasionally, EarthLink introduced various occasional usage plans, from a one-hour pass retailing for $3.95 USD to a $15.95 USD three-day pass. Additional providers will also be able to offer their services on the network through third-party deals.
