We've mentioned the Belkin Wi-fi Phone for Skype before, but it's worth noting that it now claims support for Boingo hot spots. These are paid hot spots found in many airports, hotels, and other businesses, and having access to these hot spots removes one of the major limitations of this phone,. It has preinstalled Skype software and works wherever you can find a wireless connection, including on most secure networks. As with other wireless Skype phones, we are unsure as to the accessibility of all features, but we suspect that you can make basic calls without assistance.
