Boingo Sees Immediate Impact of the iPad in Airports

The iPad has already become the second most popular non-laptop device connecting to Boingo's WiFi networks, displacing Android devices and more than doubling the daily number of visits for the previous second place device.


"It's stunning how quickly the iPad has established itself as a force in Wi-Fi," said Dave Hagan, president and CEO of Boingo Wireless. "After four days in market, it is already being more widely used than other Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices that have moved millions of units."


The iPhone is still the indisputable king of mobile devices, representing nearly 90% of all non-laptop connections in Boingo's airports. The above data represents all Wi-Fi enabled non-laptop devices in Boingo's managed network, which includes 58 airports, the Washington State Ferries, and several sporting arenas and convention centers.
