The wave of the future. From what I read, it looks like China is converting old phone booths into what is called WiFi Hotspots. They also have an attachment that you can plug in to make regular calls,
Yes!! It’s true I have used them and you often see people with ‘smart’ phones standing around near them. They aren’t always the speediest wifi but can be better than nothing if you are stuck and need to connect. I think it’s a great use of old phone booths. They do add charm to the concession areas. If you really need good wifi go to almost any coffee shop and they will give you their password so you can hook up while you sip your drink.
Have fun!

I relied on the coffee shops … and, to my surprise, many other restaurants. In fact, I used WiFi, my iPad, and a translation program to order when out by myself in Shanghai.
I found out that it is … but I chuckle imagining myself standing inside with my laptop and cup of latte … while several people impatiently wait outside for their turns.
hehe, hope you find out soon enough! do let us know!
Interesting!

It really is
Hong Kong has similar spots.
I think it’s true as well, I’ve heard the same things.
So I hear
have no idea…but it sure is interesting to know

I know what you mean… can imagine the people in line waiting for their turn to internet…
Or pushing & shoving to get in?
Love it!
So, I find out it really is a hot spot … I keep chuckling because I envision myself standing in there with my little laptop and cup of latte.
I had sudden visions of old Superman cartoons and changing from Clark Kent into you know who!
That’s IT! I had a glimpse of an idea about this phone booth and you have now expressed it!
LOL.. I wonder how much time each person gets to use at a time?
TeeHee
That’s crazy if it is! HAHA
I think it is funny!
How funny! I think it would be cool if it really is WiFi.
I believe that it is.
