Skype Access expands, now unlocks over 500,000 hotspots

Feb 15, 2011 Cellpex, United States, Ohio - admin


We can't all have 3G or 4G wireless wherever -- sometimes we need to get friendly with a plain 'ol hotspot. Skype is making that a little easier, expanding Skype Access in partnership with eight international WiFi pushers:

BT Openzone
Fon
M3 Connect
Row 44
Skyrove
Spectrum Interactive
Tomizone
Vex

Fon will probably be the most familiar if you're in America, but combined the program covers 500,000 hotspots, including 500 hotels. Users will be able to pay for WiFi by the minute using Skype Credit, with prices ranging from a nickel to $.19 per currently. No word on whether that will be changing with this new announcement.Skype Access expands, now unlocks over 500,000 hotspots originally appeared on Engadget on Tue, 15 Feb 2011 14:49:00 EDT.
