Turn your smartphone into a wifi hotspot
This is not a product review site, but I can’t help but talk about this software package that I stumbled on to today. Someone came up with the bright idea of writing a software which converts your wifi enabled smart phone into a wifi hotspot. This allows your laptop or other wifi devices such as a PSP to access the Internet through your phone’s data connection.
While a lot of PDAs do allow Internet Connection Sharing from laptops, it usually requires a proprietary software to be installed and requires the phone to be connected to the laptop either through Bluetooth or USB.
Requirements include Windows Mobile 5 and up, Wifi enabled PDA, Data Plan, 15 MB space, and Internet Sharing enabled. Before I forget, the software is called WMWifiRouter. Now, if only someone came up with an open source version of this.
