Is there a place other than the tea lounge where I can get free wireless? Preferably in south slope? Thanks!

    Anyone know if they still plan to outfit Prospect Park with free wireless? I thought that was due to happen end of summer, like now-ish? That'd be nice!

    Free wireless internet:

    Mule Cafe, 4th Ave, north of St. Marks
    Gorilla Coffee, 5th Ave at Park Pl
    Heights Coffee, Flatbush Ave near 7th Ave
    Joyce Bakery, Vanderbilt Ave just below Park Pl
    Brooklyn Public Library, at Grand Army Plaza

    Non-free, perhaps expensive wireless internet:

    Ozzies Coffee, 5th Ave near Carroll?
    Ozzies Coffee, 7th Ave near Lincoln or so?
    Starbucks, 7th Ave near 1st St

    they still plan on it. they were supposed to have done it by the end of august, according to the NYT. but i can't find any recent mentions of it.

    I just saw a poster somewhere about some corporation paying for a bunch of parks wireless . . . there was no list, but it reminded me the city said they were aiming at it, and PP was on the list . . .

    did I dream this?
