    Truckers taking to wireless Internet technology Holland Sentinel, MI
    With about 70 percent of truckers owning computers and nearly two-thirds having Internet access at home, creating a way for truckers to get online while on the road seemed like a no-brainer, Meiusi said.

    To make wireless Internet work, truck stops install antennas that serve as 'access points' on building roofs. All truckers need is Wi-Fi-capable computers. Inside the truck stops are kiosks where online access can be purchased by the hour, day, week, month or year. After they pay, the drivers are given a password to get online.
