need a hotspot, try the Windows Live hotspot locator

Another handy tool for those of you in search of Internet Wi-Fi connectivity. This service (Beta)  from Microsoft enables users to search a Global database of hotspots. Search by City, County for free or paid hotpots withing a specified distance. Try it out at http://hotspot.live.com/web/SearchView.aspx . Results are dipsplayed initially in tabular format along with free/paid attribute tag. Then you can click on a hotspot of your choice for additional info (ie service porovider) and get a map. Then email details to yourself or a friend... nice!
