I’m not sure if I saw this before, but I thought it was really quite funny.
I didn’t realize it, but the new FON Shop looks really neat, check it out over here. English and Chinese version for Hong Kong obviously. It comes out on top of Google!
What is interesting is that the USB WiFi adaptor has been SOLD OUT, why are they not making new ones?
I’ve seen FON in IFC before but never checked it out more as usually I am in a mad rush when I am in there buying stuff or going to a meeting, so today I’m going to write a bit more about it since I had dinner there and as I walked around this popular Mall while it was empty I was actually able to see exactly what was going on there!

The Signal was very strong on the 1st and 2nd Level closest to Mikimoto (famous for pearls) and Prada (famous for really very expensive fashion). So for all the bored boyfriends/husbands who need to wait as their other half does the Shopping, they can download stuff at super high speeds! Yeehaa!

Obviously IFC is a very popular location and I was not surprised to see excellent coverage of all sorts of Wi-Fi signals, I was surprised not to see PCCW but HKBN and CSL were there as well, the other signal I think was random and one was obviousy secure. I didn’t realize CSL was also offering Wi-Fi services.

The most interesting thing was that the Signal held out all the way into the Lane Crawford which is a level above, and is also very popular, so now at least I know that if I need to get my quick download Fix, this is where I go in IFC! I haven’t done more thorough checking but the Signal was best in those areas I thought but I welcome any other FON findings!
