As reported in The Mirror, the kiosks will be able to access free ultrafast Wi-Fi with speeds of up to 1Gbps, two USB charging ports so that users can charge their phone and a touch-screen tablet for accessing maps, directions and local services.
Directions and local service information will be fed through a number of sensors on each kiosk, to allow each one to give you up to date information on the weather, traffic conditions and air pollution.
Oh and the kiosks will offer free UK landline and mobile phone calls to boot.
BT chief executive for wholesale and ventures Gerry McQuade said: "We're evolving the phone box to make it relevant in the 21st century by offering people ultrafast Wi-Fi and a range of digital and information services entirely for free."
Sounds all well and good, but can BT make the kiosks red? Y'know, for old times sake...
