Devicescape
"WiFi software specialist Devicescape has broadened its business model, launching a service around a patented networking technique claimed to eliminate the complexities of end-user WiFi logins. The service is free to the public, but earns the company commissions from operators and royalties from device makers. "
…"The service could, for example, enable Internet phones to make and receive calls without the user logging in, enabling the devices to act more like cell phones, Flinchbaugh said. Additional user benefits are many, he added, citing enhanced device security, user service discovery, usage record storage, and more. "
…"The Connect Agent is currently available for free download on Devicescape's website, to users of Windows Mobile devices, Windows XP SP2 laptops, Nokia's Linux-based 770 Internet tablet, and Linksys's Linux-based WIP300 VoIP phone, according to Devicescape.
The Connect Agent currently works with 30 commercial hotspot networks representing 50,000 points of presence, according to Flinchbaugh. Supported hotspot networks currently include AT&T, Atria, BT Openzone, Earthlink, Fatport, FON, Google, KPN, McCarran Airport, NTT, Opti-Fi, Orange, PT-WiFi, Softbank, Sonera HomeRun, Swisscom, Surf-and-Sip, T-Mobile, The Cloud, Union Square Wireless, Wayport (US McDonalds), WiFly, and ZRNET.
