Amtrak to finally launch free WiFi on October 1st?

Rumor 'round the Twitterverse has it that Amtrak may finally be implementing free WiFi on October 1st -- finally seeing the bet laid down by various plane and bus companies over the past couple years. The casual conversation between conductor and passenger yielded the information that the system is apparently "ready to roll and it's [sic] just a matter of 'flipping the on switch.'" This comes as great news for commuters who have heard rumblings of the allegedly forthcoming free WiFi since January of 2010. Unfortunately, other than the tweet, there's no word (official or otherwise) whether net surfage will be possible beginning next month. Regardless, looks like the "I didn't have internet access" excuse is still valid for a little while longer for all you nine to fivers.
