Guardian article
Transport for London (TfL) is in the final stages of the tender process for the supply of Wi-Fi to up to 120 of its underground stations.
Gareth Powell, director of strategy and service development, said: "London Underground is continuing with preparations to install the necessary infrastructure and is on schedule to complete the project as planned."
Powell added the contract will be in place "leaving plenty of time for this to be delivered to customers in time for the 2012 Games".

I was using the Birmingham Green bus the other day which had Wi Fi on it. It never worked
But yeah it's good move cos at least the mobile networks don't have to build their masts down there. Vodafone have their network or a Wi Fi network built into some Virgin trains
