Please can you send me a invite to buy a Fone router at discount $20 USD. Or free if possible. I would like to start the service up @ Whistler, Canada.

There is no service up here. I think 2 people on the map got routers but they never turn them on. I want to change that for FON users.

I have a good location and can hit the local starbucks from my condo.

Please email me if you have any questions.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am excited to know about this project. We run educational institutions in India. I checked up your site and found that some cities north of my state have this.

Can I install this router for our educational campus? It will be great for the students. Will they be counted as foneros and get the benefit of wifi access at other places?

Hi Lukasz,

Thanks a lot for your interest in FON – actually we partner with onet in
Poland and will launch that cooperation shortly.

Intially, onet will also take over the blogging function, but we might
change that over time.

So i suggest we stay in touch!

Best

Robert

Hi Greg,
M6y name is Joanna Rees and I run Fon in the US. Can you give me more details on your town and what your ISP is doing to bring fiber to the
home. It would be helpful to get as many details as possible. Perhaps it may be helpful to talk later this week. Friday would work well for
me. I am traveling in the interim. Let me know what would work. Best,
Joanna

Hi Greg!

We would love for your town in Iowa to be the first Fonero town in the States!

Indeed while towns in Europe buy the boxes if you are the first to do this in the States we would probably donate them, I have to learn more about the area to be covered.

I am in a small Iowa town that has a local ISP installing “fiber to the home”. Could we become a FON community by everyone installing a FOn box on their line? Perhaps this would allow us to not have to pay the high fees of cell phone contracts. Thanks for any advice; are any US towns now doing this?
