Government minister Stephen Timms opened today's Wi-Fi & 3G summit in London by listing the achievements of the "light touch regulatory policy" he's been able to put in place since taking over at the Department - and confirmed that his plan to put an open Wi-Fi hotspot in every public library was "going ahead". "I'm very keen on the idea that every public library should be a Wi-Fi hotspot," he said. "Already 90 per cent have broadband, and my department is now working up that idea." Timms strongly supported the future of 3G, and said that it would be "complementary" to Wi-Fi. Full article over at The Register.
