Wi-Fi Hotspot Roaming Charges

bridigo · 2007-05-23 23:45:47

Was checking out Skype Zones, who charge $7.95 per month for Wi-Fi access at Boingo hotspots. Since most Hotspot providers (Eircom/BT/Bitbuzz) partner with Boingo for roaming, would it not be a good idea to pay Skype/Boingo $8 a month rather than Bitbuzz up to EUR 49.95 a month!?!

I think that service only give you access to Skype through the wifi network though, you would not be able to also use it for regular browsing or email access.
