Singapore has just announced an bold ambitious move to wire up the entire nation with a extremely high speed backbone that would move data in speeds beyond 1Gbps, or 500 times the common access speed of 2Mbps with the use of optical fibres or other technologies. Most of the crowded centres and streets would be "WI-FI"-ed by late this year.

My dream of having the entire nation being one BIG hotspot would be coming true in probably a couple of years time.

I have heard that the term "disconnected applications" will be thrown out of the window in Singapore very soon .

Ah - the wonders of living in a [garden] city-site.
