Just caught this coming across the wire... maybe this is old news to those who frequent Eppley.

WiSE Technologies, a leading Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) utilizing the popular wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) standard, today announced that wireless networks and wireless rental devices (WRD) are available for use in seven new airports throughout the United States including Anchorage International Airport, Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport, El Paso International Airport, Miami International Airport, Eppley Airfield, Palm Beach International Airport, and the Delta Airline terminal in LaGuardia Airport. These latest installations underscore WiSE Technologies' position as one of the fastest growing leaders in providing wireless environments in airports and other travel venues throughout the United States.

WiSE Technologies has successfully installed wireless access points in these seven airports, making wireless Internet access easy for travelers. In addition, WiSE has installed wireless rental devices called "WiSE Boxes" in numerous locations, providing Internet access for travelers without computers. These airport additions also strengthen WiSE Technologies alliance with HMSHost, a world-renowned leader in creating innovative concession plans in travel venues. As part of this alliance, WiSE is enabling Wi-Fi access in HMSHost restaurants, cafes and other concession operations throughout many of the newly announced airports.

"By providing wireless access at numerous airports, WiSE Technologies gives travelers significantly increased communication power; a user, for example, could stay connected before he or she gets on the plane, during the layover, and upon landing at their final destination," according to Gary Murray, II, President and CEO of WiSE Technologies. "With these and future, planned airport installations, WiSE is significantly expanding its footprint as a leader in providing wireless environments for travelers across the nation."

"Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is extremely pleased about the ability WiSE Technologies has given us to provide fast, easy Internet access for passengers," according to Michael Landguth, Interim President and CEO, Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. "Our relationship with WiSE clearly reaffirms our goal of continually increasing passenger amenities and service levels to ensure maximum travel convenience and comfort."
