Re: Huh?

Some stations are already in range of a signal in some spots. Sounds like a huge amount of money for coverage just in stations, not on moving trains. And the major carriers have to partner with Transit Wireless to get coverage for their subscribers. Is this really needed?

So now we will have roaming charges in the subway? Or since most national carriers have no-roaming plans, that means we just wont have service in the subway.
