[olug] Cafe with WiFi in Omaha?

[Thom Harrison]

Mojo's Coffee shop on the corner of 49th and Dodge just got a new owner.
Since they're a block from me I showed them the OLUG emails indicating the
need for a WiFi Cafe.  This is the email response.

It looks like Omaha's Wi-Fi-less days are over!  :-)

Good Morning!   I was told your group had an interest in Wi-Fi.   So here's
the update!

 I'm in the process of purchasing a 256k line for MoJo's Coffeehouse.  I
will be attaching it to a Linksys Access point and a Linksys Wireless Signal
booster.  The Access Point/Router will be wide open and best of all FREE!
If the wireless access increases traffic and customers purchase more MoJo's
products we will be able to increase the bandwidth.

Currently MoJo's offers a great meeting area in the back of the building.
The meeting area can seat up to 15 people comfortably.   We try to schedule
the meeting area so that you're insured of it's availability.   So for your
next php.meetup.com meeting please consider MoJo's Coffeehouse!!!

DRINK THE GAS and KEEP GOING!!  MoJo's Coffeehouse....
