Software solutions developer for smartphone TapRoot Systems Inc. announced that WalkingHotSpot Internet connectivity solution is now available commercially.

After its initial launch earlier this year, WalkingHotSpot has been successfully tested by thousands of beta testers on major wireless networks. The solution simply requires a one-time software download to Wi-Fi-enabled smartphone. This will allow users to securely retrieve e-mails, search and browse the Internet on Wi-Fi enabled devices such as laptops, MP3 players, etc., with no additional software or configuration required on the connecting device.

WalkingHotSpot is available for Wi-Fi enabled smartphones using Symbian S60 and Windows Mobile operating systems, with support for other major operating systems coming soon. Subscribers are offered a free seven day trial and can then purchase a monthly subscription for $6.99 or a special introductory yearly subscription for $24.99.
