Boingo's Airport WiFi is Ready and Waiting for the iPad Release

Admit it; you've either already preordered an iPad or you're itching to do it. Well, when those babies finally release next month, you'll be able to do more with them than simply read the newspaper. No matter which model you opt for—3G and WiFi or just WiFi—you'll be able to access Boingo hotspots, which you'll find at airports without free internet and various chains around the world.

Boingo has just announced that not only do their access plans work for the iPad just like they do for laptops, but that they'll begin offering their wireless in 1-hour segments. Hallelujah! We've had to pony up the money for one of their minimum plans before, ones that give you way too much time when you might only need the internet for a half-hour of emergency emailing.

There's a bit more news tucked into their newsletter, like their favorite digital picture-to-postcard service and how they'll be the exclusive internet provider at six major UK airports, including London-Heathrow and London-Stansted, but it's the iPad preparedness that really got us.
