Boingo, the worlds largest facilitator of WiFi hot spots has struck a deal with Nokia to allow its users to access spots all over the globe.  Literally thousands of hotspots are now yours if you have selected Nokia products.

But hold up, whats this?  You have to download their software to access?  Yep.  By downloading their software they claim accessing the hot spot is quick and convenient.  A necessary evil perhaps though countless hotel chains have my money without me needed to download anything.

“Beginning today, Boingo Mobile is available as a downloadable application via Nokia Download! on the Nokia N95, N80, N80 Internet Edition multimedia smartphones, and at http://mobile.boingo.com/nokia/ for selected Wi-Fi enabled Nokia S60-based devices.

At the beginning of November, Boingo Mobile will be accessible via Nokia Download! on additional selected Nseries smartphones as well as Eseries smartphones; via the Tableteer site on Nokia N800 and N810 tablets; and via Boingo’s website at http://mobile.boingo.com/nokia/.”

Boingo’s got hotspots all over the world from Turkey to Tanzania to Bermuda to Hong Kong.  Other phones are supported, see site for listing.
