Japan continues to push the idea of technology and how it can be used in our everyday lives. While in the States, coffee shops continue to lock their WiFi for special rewards members only and our planes and airports are slowly getting WiFi (again for a fee), Japanese taxis are looking to make the commute for their passengers a little easier by adding WiFi to the ride as well. 820 taxis in Tokyo will be outfitted with WiFi while 100 of them will also be getting a PSPgo as well, giving those sitting in the backseat some form of entertainment during their travel. Best of all, this is a free service for anybody who decides to use the taxi service. Would-be passengers can identify the taxis with these equipment by looking for a red DoCoMo sticker on the cab’s door. Though the service is currently live, expect the entire fleet to be fully operational by March 2011.
