Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi Available on Select Sony Ericsson Phones

Boingo Wireless and Sony Ericsson have announced that owners of Sony Ericsson UIQ 3.0 handsets can download the Boingo mobile Application and use the 80,000 different Boingo hotspots around the world. That number includes 500 airports, hotels, coffee shots and more.

The service isn’t free though like the offering for the iPhone. The Boingo service will cost $7.95 per month with no per-minute or charges per megabyte of data sent or received. The service will be available in Europe as well.

"An increasing number of smartphones with Wi-Fi capability are now available in the market, giving consumers the option to access their favorite phone applications over a fast and inexpensive connection," said Jonathan Mendelson, general manager of Boingo Mobile. "Sony Ericsson customers can now experience the broadband speed and great online experience provided by Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi."
