Australia's Telstra says that it will more than double its Wi Fi trial to switch on more than 1,500 new hotspots nationwide by June, building on the1,100 hotspots Australians already enjoy.
Telstra has also announced it will bring Wi-Fi to its entire 80 owned retail stores later this year.
Group Executive Telstra Retail, Gordon Ballantyne said Telstra's Wi-Fi network is growing rapidly and this extension will mean we will bring an extra 60 locations online with places as widespread as the Whitsundays and Mount Gambier joining more than 250 suburbs and towns already connected.
"Australians are proving to be fast adopters of Wi-Fi, with more than 1 million unique devices connecting to the 1,100 hotspots we have switched on since November."
"We want the community to be a part of the rollout and are giving them a chance to tell us where we should priorities switching on 500 of the new sites. We have a list of areas where we think Australians might like to use Wi-Fi but we want to know for sure by asking people where they would like the next Wi-Fi hotspots switched on."
