fringing freedom at CTIA, Las Vegas
You know we like to spread the fring love worldwide, right? Well this week, fring does Vegas! No not the tables or the slots, but just as exciting, it’s CTIA, one of the most important gigs in the mobile calendar.
Boaz Zilberman, founder and chief architect of fring and Dan Atzmon, Business Development Director, will be at CTIA in Las Vegas from April 1st to April 3rd. The guys have been invited to demonstrate at the Symbian booth (thank you folks at Symbian!) so if you’re visiting, please feel free to come and say hi.
fringing all over the world with boingo mobile
We’ll be announcing at CTIA a brand new partnership between fring and boingo, allowing boingo mobile users to talk, chat & interact and enjoy their own fringing freedom.
boingo mobile puts Wi-Fi in the palm of your hand, allowing you to use your Wi-Fi enabled handset to browse the Internet at over 60,000 boingo hotspot locations worldwide. With a boingo mobile account and fring you’ll now be able to whip out your phone at a boingo hotspot, and talk, do live chat and swap files with your favorite online buddies straight from your handset over boingo’s blazingly fast WiFi mobile internet connection.
And, if you already have a boingo mobile account or have visited and logged into one of boingo’s hotspots before, fring’s clever auto-roaming feature will recognize next time you’re within range of any other boingo hotspot and log you in automatically using your previous log-in details. What could be easier!
Start enjoying your very own fringing freedom with boingo mobile today !
