by Josh Holat on Jul 8, 2008 at 07:22 AM

MacBook Pro Santa RosaBoingo Wireless, which has Wi-Fi at more than 100,000 hotspots worldwide, has released a Mac ready version of their popular GoBoingo! client software. This software allows users to more easily log into public Wi-Fi hotspots, saving them time. With monthly or pay as you go plans, GoBoingo! can help save the hassle of remembering numerous passwords to Wi-Fi services. If you’re not looking forward to this, it’s good to know that Dawn Callahan, vice president of consumer marketing at Boingo Wireless, is. In the press release he was quoted as saying, “We now have an easy-to-use Wi-Fi utility for the legions of MacBook users who want to be connected to Boingo Wi-Fi hotspots at airports, hotels and retail locations.”

This software, which is less than 1MB in size, works on both Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard. It simply sits in the background of your computer and waits until you enter a hotspot that belongs to one of Boingo’s partners, then helps you enter it. Boingo offers plenty of hotspots, too. Located at over 475 airports and 17,000 hotels, you will surely find this software helpful if you travel a lot. So get a surfin’!
