Normally I'm flooded with open WiFi. Even in my home town, Mountain View has Google's free WiFi network all over.

Still would choose GPS over WiFi if the choice must be made.

Yes, on reflection, one can't forget the emerging geeky goodness........ And I have to say I have a tendency to overlook the unknown unkowns, and thus I jump to the conclusion I don't need it now and so won't need it ever. I do recognize, however, that once wi-fi reaches some some critical mass, the creative people are going to come to life with services that we don't foresee now. I just have to keep reminding myself. So, on second thought, bring it on.
