    Been asking for wifi forever, pinside experts tell me it’s too expensive even though my kids toys have it.....

    Quoted from Fezmid:

    I don't recall seeing people saying it's too expensive

    This was one of the pinexperts assessments a while back in response to my bitching about wifi...along with claims of hacking vulnerability and all sorts of nonsense.

    “The hardware cost of implementing WiFi with Spike is <$20/machine.
    The costs associated with developing the relevant software are a lot higher.
    Bottom line is, this sort of move would cost something on the order of $250k. Stern would not make this up in increased sales. They'd probably want to charge license fees. They probably still wouldn't make it up.”
