  Hotspot Networks are a new industry that seemed to come out of nowhere at the end of 2001. It has been described as a threat to the carriers' cellular networks (ABC News) and the guerrilla revolution of wireless computing ( Seattle Times ). Hotspots offer users Internet and telecom services that are up to 40 times faster and less than 1/10 as expensive as what they've got now. Reminiscent of the '90s, the action is evenly split between startups and providers, and the business press is following this industry closely.
