The PA governor's office said that Verizon and Philadelphia have reached a deal permitting the citywide project--which is intended to turn 135 square miles of downtown into one huge 802.11b hot spot--to proceed.
Wired had reported that Ed Rendell was in the pocket of the telcoms, but this last minute news means if you've got a laptop in Philly, cancel your home internet service!
