It seems that they're just adding functionality similar to a WiFi keychain. Once you've found a wireless network, you can set up your laptop to connect.
I've actually needed service like this, as I've gone to several small businesses where the person I spoke to had no idea whether or not the shop was WiFi capable. It would have saved me at least ten minutes in each occasion if I could turn on an iPod or one of these keychains to see if service was available, and possibly find a strong reception point.
