Wireless by the nile

at last I'm on wireless, today we went out to test public access points in Cairo.
Al Sakia has what must be one of the best wireless spots in town, right now I'm sitting directly by nile writing this entry, while cairo is covered in a filthy smog cloud I'm enjoying a nice (relativly fresh) breeze and still get the benefit of all the spam, goatse, pr0n and eglug one gets at home.
cheers, Alaa

there are a few
I found 4 different lists, which mostly intersect but with loads of small differences.
these lists only contain public spots installed by wayout no one is listing other public places not related to wayout (there are a few) or people who left theirs open.
I'm working on a unified list and plan to verify as many as I ca myself (and hopefully others will help), but its a lengthy annoying process (there is a rather obscene rant about it in my blog).
anyways the lists are:

I will make one soon
I will make one on manalaa.net soon, but I'll need people to verify the spots.
I hate interactive maps, but if you find a map of Cairo with any kind of metadata let me know and I'll try to hack something.
whirlpool has a GPS thngie, we can probably use that with the interactive map.
