easyEverything, the internet center we used in Amsterdam, is now opening a branch in Times Square. The internet café idea hasn't taken off here, maybe because people have their own machines, but the 600 terminal operation in Amsterdam had plenty of business, and perhaps the tourists will fill up the NY branch. You might think they'd have a better web site, though.
i just saw a piece on this place yesterday. backing from hp and microsoft. plan locations around the country. pricing based on degree of crowdness at the location. they said about $4 per hour (when usage is high) which seemed alot more reasonable than the $12 the are charging at the cafe on prince st. i also thought i heard that only 10% of america is wired at home so there still may be some people that need access. will tourists usage be enough? maybe....
