I don't know about Dallas offhand either. I live closer to Fort Worth, where my brother is a city employee and tells me the city is paranoid about WiFi. Figures.

I'm not sure about Dallas, but I would hope they are working on free wifi, I live in the Midwest, and both Dubuque, IA and Madison, WI are working on getting free city wide wifi within the next 5 years or at least thats what they tell us. There are already a few free wifi spots in Dubuque thanks to the city. I can't wait till I live in a city that has wifi city wide, I'd even be willing to pay a small fee for it. Back to the original title of this thread. I am interested in knowing when the next release would be that would include the USB drivers so I know if I should start playing with compiling the kernel myself or if I should just wait a bit longer for a release.
