Vancouver BC (PRWEB) January 10, 2005 -- With the installation of Squamishs WhiteSpot restaurant, FatPort has unwired locations in a milestone 50 communities across Canada. Targeted at mobile professionals, FatPort has a long history of providing access in smaller communities typically under-serviced by other providers.

Two recent deals spurred FatPorts recent rapid growth: select Macs Convenience and Whitespot restaurants are now offering FatPort wireless Internet to their customers. They join a network of hotels, restaurants, and cafes across Canada including the Coast Hotel chain and Earls restaurants.

Were very much focused on developing our presence in places the other providers might ignore for logistical reasons. By taking on that challenge, we now own or operate 300 locations in Canada, and through our roaming partners, offer access to 4000 sites around the world."
