Just four years ago, FON<\/a> was a small group of WiFi addicts with a simple but ambitious goal, WiFi everywhere. Today FON is the world\u2019s largest WiFi community. FON now has 2 million members<\/strong> and 1.5 million active hotspots <\/strong>worldwide. For those looking for WiFi<\/a> on the go that means you can connect to 950,000 hotspots in the UK; 175,000 hotspots in mainland Europe; 50,000 hotspots in Japan and 325,000 hotspots across the rest of the globe, thanks to FON.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s just the beginning! Our user-generated WiFi network keeps on growing. We expect FON hotspots to more than triple in 2010. This gives everyone a lot more WiFi to look forward to and plenty of reason to celebrate.<\/p>\n

In the UK, where open WiFi is illegal, we would like to point out that FON is legal and operates together with BT. The BT FON<\/a> network is the largest in the nation.<\/p>\n

Fonera, FON\u2019s innovative WiFi router and your ticket to free WiFi, is available from the FON shop<\/a> today.<\/p>\n

FON data from Q1 2010.<\/p>\n
