Turn Your Mobile Into A Wi-Fi Hotspot

Wi-Fi has become the standard when it comes to wireless internet, but Wi-Fi hotspots can be tricky to find depending on where you live. If you think you can carry the burden of being your own ISP, then turning your 3G mobile into a hotspot might be the solution you're looking for.

North Carolina-based TapRoot Systems today announced its WalkingHotSpot software, designed to effectively turn a Wi-Fi- and mobile broadband-enabled handset into a Wi-Fi router. At launch, WalkingHotSpot will be available only for Windows Mobile or Symbian Series 60 smartphones. TapRoot CEO Bob Bicksler said.

A free demo will be available for download at the official website and it will support one Wi-Fi connection. The full version of the product will be sold to carriers only. Consumers will have to avail of the service from their providers since TapRoot currently has no plans of selling an end-user version of WalkingHotSpot.
