Santa joins Wi-Fi world

Kent's Bluewater shopping mall has teamed up with BT to offer children the chance to send their wish list to Santa via wireless broadband before meeting him in the Grotto.

Children waiting with their parents in the queue can type out their letters on laptops held by Santa’s helpers and email them direct to Santa at father.christmas@bt.com.

Chris Clark, chief executive officer, Converged Mobility Operations at BT Retail, said: “BT is working with Bluewater and Motorola in helping even Santa to join the hi-tech world.”

Bluewater is 40 minutes from central London and is one mile from Junction 2 of the M25.
