While trying to work out how we would maintain consistent internet access while traveling around Europe working on our projects, Metis Internet Partners came across Boingo, a global wireless internet company.


As of 25 June 2007, Boingo is offering a global roaming plan for USD $39 per month, which allows users to access more than 100,000 wireless hotspots including airports, hotels and cafes around the world for a flat fee. This is the world’s first truly global flat-rate service. There are no roaming charges and no per-minute fees.


This development follows a recent deal with FON, a community of people making wireless internet access universal and free. Foneros, FON's community members, share some of their home internet connection and get free access to the community’s wireless hotspots worldwide. When integrated into the Boingo network an additional 130,000 wireless hotspots will be available through one account.


In two months the threat of huge bills to access the internet while traveling has become an opportunity to seek out wireless hotspots and trial Boingo's new global roaming package.
