I don't know if anyone has already posted this list its a few years old, but it thought it was interesting.

Rankings factored in the percentage of Internet users with high-speed access, the range of service providers within a city and the availability of public wireless hot spots.

Apparently Cisco and Yahoo! are in San Francisco now. I guess it's to be expected, but there goes all credibility.

What I don't understand is why they don't look at smaller cities and towns as well. I live in a very small town and have 4 different wireless options, Cable,& DSL. I can connect, if I want to pay for it, at over 256 Mb a second both upload and download. Anywhere downtown is free wireless access.
