This, as a <a href=\"https:\/\/english.martinvarsavsky.net\/general\/wifi-in-your-car-and-why-3g-is-not-enough.html\">similar service<\/a> I reviewed last March, proves how WiFi keeps thriving as a common language spoke by laptops and gadgets (like the ones built by Apple, Nintendo or Sony) and turning 3G into a WiFi signal will keep making a lot of sense for more then a few years.<\/p>\n<p>Chrysler is an American brand and we don&#8217;t see many of its cars here in Europe, so if you want to turn your car into a WiFi hotspot you&#8217;ll soon be able to do it with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fon.com\">Fon<\/a>&#8216;s help. We are making a lot of progress into enabling our users to plug an HSDPA modem (like the ones most operators give you for free if you pay for a monthly data plan) into our upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/english.martinvarsavsky.net\/general\/the-fonosfera-fons-development-community-program-and-the-fonera-20.html\">Fonera 2.0<\/a>, that as you know has a useful USB port. Once you&#8217;ll have bought a Fonera 2.0, got a HSDPA modem from your mobile operator of choice and found a way (there are many)\u00a0 to power your Fonera, you too will have WiFi in your car for all your family&#8217;s gadgets (iPod touch, Nintendo DS, PSP, laptops, etc), and probably at a much lower price then Chrysler&#8217;s option.<\/p>\n<div id=\"mainphotoarea\"><\/div><div class=\"theme-buttons\"><div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/english.martinvarsavsky.net\/?p=1297\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"box_count\" data-width=\"71\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-font=\"arial\" data-locale=\"en_US\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From next year Chrysler, the third-largest automaker in the States, will provide most of their Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models with a \u201cuconnect\u201d system that will give the vehicles a 3G cellular Internet connection shared throughout the car over Wi-Fi.
