Singapore To Have Nation Wide WiFi

From the sound of things it would seem that Singapore (yes that's us) will soon be the latest country to get the 802.11 treatment, having all of its near 700 square kilometers blanketed in WiFi. That would make Singapore the third nation that we know of to completely covered, joining Mauritius and Macedonia, with Estonia not far behind. Our government report, "Information Nation 2015", notes that we currently averages one WiFi hotspot for every square kilometer, so combined with upcoming WiMax technology, we are aiming to be one ginormous hotspot by the end of the year.

Of course, the report also states, that we'll have 4G cell phones, "Fibre to the Home," the "Semantic World Wide Web," and "Embedded and Wearable Computers" by 2015, which might make us one of the most advanced civilzations around (Yea, that's really ambitious).
