Attention IETF readers: the Hilton Wi-Fi network is still accessible via
the IETF credentials. I'm sitting in the lobby now waiting to go to the
airport and getting better network connectivity than I had all during
IETF week, what with noone else clogging the Intertubes.
Unfortunately, while Internet is free at the Red Carpet Club in San Francisco, in the Lufthansa lounge in Frankfurt, where I will be spending 2 hours today, it is the standard shockingly expensive service you've come to expect from T-Mobile.
Lufthansa was stupid enough to get into a ridiculously long longterm contract with T-Mobile. Their PR people personally confirmed this and 2011 or 2012 the contract shall be history. Hopefully we'll then have free Wifi in LH lounges.
