BOSTON, Mass. -- The number of WLAN implementations has doubled over the past year while wide-area wireless data initiatives have stagnated, according to a report from market research company The Yankee Group. The report also states that approximately 1 million wireless local-area network (WLAN) access points are used by over 700,000 enterprises including 11,000 large establishments. "In most cases, enterprises should decide on WLAN deployments based on the value of the network for its internal utility, viewing the public WLAN opportunity as 'gravy' unless, of course, some third-party service provider is willing to install the infrastructure for free," said Adam Zawel director of wireless/mobile enterprise and commerce research at Yankee Group, in a statement.
