McCain now says he created cell phones and wi-fi too

Yes he did:

I am the former chairman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation. The Committee plays a major role in the development of technology policy, specifically any legislation affecting communications services, the Internet, cable television and other technologies. Under my guiding hand, Congress developed a wireless spectrum policy that spurred the rapid rise of mobile phones and Wi-Fi technology that enables Americans to surf the web while sitting at a coffee shop, airport lounge, or public park.
You have to be one heck of a visionary to create wi-fi for computers when you don't even really know what a computer is. Now that's American ingenuity, my friends. (And Al Gore's supposed claim of helping to create the Internet is based on the same premise, passing legislation that created an environment in which it flourished. You can't criticize Gore and praise McCain. The lies finally caught up with McCain. (Scientific American confirms he said it.)
