The initial idea for the project was to bring free wireless internet to public spaces in Iowa City, and was based on similar projects in Austin and New York. Well, since then, the project has grown significantly to include not only Iowa  City, but Coralville and Cedar   Rapids as well. One year ago from our launch, the name Corridor Free Wireless Network (cFree) was announced. The name refers to the Iowa Technology Corridor witch includes the space between Iowa  City and Cedar Rapids. Currently the cFree Wireless Network has hotspots in several cities throughout the corridor.<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">Iowa City &#8211; Downtown Pedestrian Mall<\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">Coralville &#8211; City Campus &#038; North Ridge       Park<\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">Cedar Rapids &#8211; Downtown Areas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">For a map of the cFree coverage areas, and information about the network, check out the cFree website: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cfreewireless.org\">http:\/\/www.cfreewireless.org<\/a>.
