MEDIA ALERT - May 14, 2003 - Vivato (www.vivato.net) and Intel Corporation have created one of the world's largest Wi-Fi "hotspots" in conjunction with France's KAST Telecom. The Vivato Wi-Fi switch, which dramatically extends the range of wireless Internet connectivity, is being used to provide wireless broadband access along the Croisette and the Bay of Cannes, allowing anyone with a wireless LAN-compatible computer or personal digital device to gain access to the Internet.
