Wi-Fi comes to airports in July, says minister

Chief of staff (taking over from outgoing Antonio Palocci) Gleisi said on Monday that the president  Dilma wants to release wireless internet at airports as early as next month.


Gleisi is the same minister who, earlier this month, was speaking to the Senate. Instead of taking the glue of the speech on paper, it carried with a sleek iPad, which symbolically showed the tone for his future work in government - so I think, at least.

According to the minister, the free internet at airports should be expected in July. If you can not install on all terminals, at least the most important and busiest receive the Wi-Fi for free until the end of the month.

If the idea of ​​President Dilma is carried on, I wonder what will happen to the service of Vex, which traditionally charges a fortune to use the Internet for a short period of time in airports?

I do not know if one thing has to do with the other, so highlight: Gleisi Hoffman is the wife of Minister Paulo Bernardo, Communications (who wants to cut taxes for games). Maybe they are matching the cards to bring technological breakthrough for the country. Or am I mistaken as well.
