Title: HOTSPOTZZ Celebrates Intel�s �One Unwired Day� with Free Wireless Internet at All Locations
Date: September 23rd, 2003
For Release: IMMEDIATE

Salt Lake City (UT) � On September 25th you better have your wireless-equipped laptop ready, because HOTSPOTZZ is celebrating �One Unwired Day,� brought to you by Intel� Centrino� mobile technology. For the entire day, all HOTSPOTZZ locations will be providing public wireless Internet access for free.

One Unwired Day celebrates a new world atmosphere in which it is increasingly common to see laptops in public spaces. Merely 5 years ago, it was absurd to bring a laptop into a coffee shop and expect to get Internet access. Yet today, coffee shops, airports, hotels and other locations must have Wi-Fi to stay competitive.

�One Unwired Day celebrates freedom,� says Henry Smith, CEO of HOTSPOTZZ. �There is an implied freedom in the wireless hot spot. You don�t have to stay home to surf the Internet anymore.�

HOTSPOTZZ is especially known for providing phenomenal service without charging exorbitant prices. Users can purchase HOTSPOTZZ wireless access in 1-, 4- or 24-hour increments via scratch cards. Alternatively, users can select an online �pay as you go� or monthly unlimited subscription plan. HOTSPOTZZ is also a fully capable Internet Service Provider, with one of the nation�s largest dial-up networks. The HOTSPOTZZ Mobile Internet Value Pack provides a complete Internet solution including home high-speed dial-up service plus unlimited access to the HOTSPOTZZ network. Prices run anywhere from $2.95 for one hour to $19.95 for the monthly wireless plus dial-up subscription.

Over the next few years the market for hot spots will grow exponentially, according to a study by Allied Business Intelligence. The study predicts that the subscriber revenue generated by hot spots will increase from a miniscule $1.1 million in 2000, to a staggering $868 million in 2006.
