As I type I’m on the train from Seattle to Portland. Getting my computer connected to the Amtrak WiFi was a piece of cake for my laptop. However, before that I tried getting my smart phones connected. I was able to do so only after tracking down the conductor and asking him how to sign in using the splash page. Both phones displayed the jumbled mess you see in the screen capture below.
Being that mobile devices now exceed laptops and other computers for Internet connections, it is a no-brainer to be thinking mobile first. Kind of funny isn’t it, that a train system that provides MOBILITY cannot get with the mobile friendly standard?
