Boingo Wireless Inc. released a version of the Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi software that supports Windows Mobile 6.0 devices. It can be downloaded from http://mobile.boingo.com/download/.

With Boingo Mobile, users can automatically connect to Boingo’s network of tens of thousands of hotspots across the globe with an increasing number of mobile devices. Boingo Mobile, which is also available for Nokia S60 and Internet Tablet devices, has supported Windows Mobile 5.0 since February 2007.

Using the latest version of Boingo Mobile, owners of Wi-Fi enabled Windows Mobile devices – including the HTC TyTN II, HP iPAQ 510, and the TMobile Dash – can maximize the networking capabilities of their handset by accessing Boingo’s worldwide hotspot network any time they’re out and about.

Boingo Mobile software automatically identifies Boingo-enabled hotspots and authenticates users with their Boingo account. Unlimited access to those hotspots is available for a flat rate of only $7.95, €5.95, or £3.95 per month.

“Boingo provides the best global Wi-Fi service value for dual-mode smartphone customers," said Jonathan Mendelson, general manager of Boingo Mobile. "The release of our new Windows Mobile client gives millions of additional mobile devices worldwide the advantage of unlimited hotspot access for one low price per month."

Boingo Mobile subscribers can use high-bandwidth Wi-Fi access for Internet-enabled services and applications such as wireless VoIP calls, emails with large attachments, streaming video, and news broadcasts. It provides unlimited high-speed Internet access with no premium charges or per-minute fees at all Boingo Mobile locations, including the places road warriors need it the most – airports, hotels, restaurants and convention centers worldwide.

Boingo Mobile is currently available for devices running Windows Mobile 6.0, Windows Mobile 5.0, Symbian S60 3^rd Edition, and Linux. It has also been ported to Symbian UIQ and BREW.
