service designed for small to midsize hotels, the largest segment of the
hospitality industry. Hot spots are areas where wireless Internet access is
available to the public using Wi-Fi, a wireless networking technology based on
the 802.11b, 802.11a and--by midyear--the 802.11g standards. Wi-Fi lets people
access a network wirelessly and share resources on that network. The number of
hot-spot locations is expected to multiply dramatically by the end of the year.
