Sun - Google to leap into Telecoms?

Google, the Californian search company has filed an application to provide a free wireless internet service to all of San Francisco. The mayor wants the free service to allow all income groups to access the internet in the city. More than a dozen other firms are competing with Google.

If Google gets the go-ahead, San Francisco could prove a testing ground for Google to potentially launch a national "wi-fi" service. Industry experts believe Google is trying to ensure that people can connect to its search engine anytime, anywhere. Google is remaining quiet on the matter.
