Lyon was actually one of if not the first city to offer such service, in 2007. It was financed by an advertising company in exchange for the concession for managing public displays.

2007 sounds about right. I remember them being free to use for .. 20 minutes or something, is that still the case? I could not try myself then because it required a french debit card iirc, which i did not have.

I haven't used them since about that time, I can't say what the prices are now.
