Boingo Wireless is conquering another platform – iPhone. Using the free native app, iPhone and iPod Touch users can access any of the 100,000 hotspots in Boingo’s network. And while the application is free, in order to access any of the hotspots available, you’ll have to pour out $7.95 every month for the service. That’s not a bad deal, if you often find yourself visiting Starbucks and/or some other Boingo Wireless location.

On the other side, with the iPhone purchase you’re probably already signed for the data service with your mobile operator, so you gotta ask yourself – is additional 8 bucks a month worth it? Don’t hesitate to drop your two cents in the comments form…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
