What exactly is a dSpot?

WiFi Hotspots are appearing in more and more locations but whenever you try and access them you are faced with the same problem - they are expensive to use.

Research has shown that the vast majority of Hotspot users only need access for 20-30 minutes to check email etc, or to pass the time whilst waiting for an appointment or journey. They are not heavy users and need infrequent access. The 'per hour' charges levied by the existing Hotspot providers are very high and this restricts the take up of Wi-Fi to business people who can pass the charges on to their company or people who are desperate for access and are willing to be ripped off.

dSpot is a new concept, developed over the last 5 years (yes, we started in 2003) and built around ground breaking technology, supported by some of the largest Internet Service Providers, and using hardware from some of the world's more reputable manufacturers - together we allow customers to gain worldwide, free WiFi access to the Internet, supporting Windows, Macs, iPhones, iPods and PDAs.

More and more free dSpots are becoming available at major locations such as Cafes, Restaurants, Service Stations and transportation hubs (Bus, Coach, Rail and Air). Once you have registered for the service you can access any dSpot using your Laptop or PDA (so if you have more than one computer you will need to register each one).

Whilst accessing the dSpot, then every few minutes you will see a small ad appear and disappear on your screen. These ads pay for the service and have been chosen based upon the websites that you visit and your physical location. Remember that we don't know your name or anything about you personally so there is no risk associated with this. We encourage you to click them whenever they are of interest - many of them will be for local retail outlets near to you and may offer sizeable discounts and free offers!

The dSpot Concept holds a provisional Patent Application US60/776,843
