Boingo Launches Wordlwide Wi-Fi Service For Mobile Phones and Devices
Boingo Mobile, the latest offering from Boingo Wireless allows users to connect to Boingo hotspots around the world for only $7.95 per month. Enabled through a free software download, Boingo Mobile works with all Window Mobile 5.0-based smartphones, Wi-Fi VoIP Phones, PDA’s, and Pocket PC devices. The service is easy to set up and delivers instant connectivity at tens of thousands of hot spots in more than 60 countries around the globe including France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Although the service is currently only available on one Wi-Fi VoIP phone, the Belkin Wi-Fi phone for Skype, Boingo Mobile is a solid step in the right direction for not only Mobile VoIP, but for dual mode calling. The ability to have one phone, that can make both VoIP and cellular calls, is the future. For the past few months there has been a tremendous buzz in the VoIP hardware space surrounding Wi-Fi and dual mode VoIP phones and it now seems that service providers are finally ready to start cashing in.
