This works ... if you a a wifi enabled PDA of course. But since there is also a full screen version of the login page, I guess the goal is to also provide connectivity for laptops. Don't get me wrong. I do not expect the city council to provide chairs and power plugs next to the hotspots. I just point out that political projects often forget the contingencies of real life. Regarding the P&T hotspot in the railway station lobby, I confirm it advertises only the paying "PT Hotspot" and not the HOTCITY SSID.
