Boingo, Wayport, McDonald's Unite for the Sake of Wi-Fi

Got a Boingo account and a liking for Big Macs? Check out Boingo Wireless' press release:
Boingo Wireless Inc., which provides access to the world's largest network of Wi-Fi hotspots, and Wayport, Inc., a leader in enabling breakthrough network applications, announced today a new strategic agreement between the two companies. This agreement will enable Boingo subscribers to access Wayport's entire North American network of Wi-Fi hotspots, including over 9,000 WiFi-enabled McDonald's US restaurants.
That's right: you can now surf with your smartphone or PDA (or laptop, if you don't mind bringing it around) while building up those calories! Seriously though, this could be good news for McDonald's, who may benefit from more visits by a geeky, higher disposable income demographic.
