O2 offers free wifi across London for Olympics

Access for everyone - not just O2 customers.
O2 has announced its plans to set up several wifi hotspots across London during London 2012.
Locations include Oxford Street, Leicester Square and Exhibition Road, which will all benefit from the scheme which was set up in cooperation with Westminster City Council and the Royal Borough of Kensington.
As with other 'free' wifi services, access will be free to all who wish to use it, even those who are not O2 customers themselves.
The service has been introduced to prevent travellers making who are their way to London for the Olympic Games from running up a large 3G roaming bill by offering simple, widespread web coverage.
Users will only need to register for the service once and they will be connected to the service automatically whenever they are in range of any of the available hotspots.
