BT to replace payphones with ad-supported Wi-Fi kiosks

(Telecompaper) BT has announced plans to roll out new kiosks in London offering free Wi-Fi and calls, supported by advertising. The UK operator is working with Intersection, which already works on a similar service in New York City, and the outdoor advertising company PrimeSight. The new service, called LinkUK from BT, will see kiosks called Links rolled out to major high streets across the capital. Hundreds of users within range of a Link will be able to access free Wi-Fi with speeds up to 1Gbps. Other free services available from the Links will include UK landline and mobile calls, mobile device charging and access to maps, directions and local services.
