Cisco continues to aggressively push its Unified Wireless Network for enterprises. This was their main message at the June 26th IT Roadmap Conference in Santa Clara, CA. While probably 70% to 90% of enterprises have some WiFi, less than 10% have pervasive access everywhere within their building or campus. Cisco would like to greatly increase Enterprise WiFi penetration by offering features like: enhanced security, location and tracking services, and secure guest access. But others see problems with company wide WiFi and wonder if the benefits are worth the risks- financial, security, scalability, availability. In an article entitled, "Helpless, Hopeless, Wireless," the June 26, 2007 Wall Street Journal (again) takes a pessimistic view of this technology stating that, "in many offices, Wi-Fi has been a headache." The Aberdeen Group weighs in with a recent research report that endeavors to measure enterprise WiFi value proposition to companies. We delve deeper into the pros and cons of Enterprise WiFi networks in this article.

AT&T continues to baffle me: The firm dropped the $1.99 per month charge for access to about 10,000 hotspots, mostly McDonald's, that they charged their broadband users for the highest speed DSL subscriptions. That saves people a whopping roughly $24 per year. But despite the fact that the iPhone is mentioned in this brief article, there's still obviously no mental connection inside the company between the AT&T Consumer division (which made this announcement) and the wireless arm that's handling the iPhone. So much for integration.
