904 Dave Hagan, CEO, Boingo Wireless

I well remember my first encounter with wireless Internet service outside of my home. It was the Cellular Telecommunication & Internet Association's Wireless 2002 show in Orlando and I was sent to cover it for Technology Meetings magazine. Boingo Wireless had approached the CTIA just two weeks earlier about making Wi-Fi available at the gigantic convention at the Orange County Convention Center and I was there to test it out. WiFi changed my life—and the magazine’s too; my cover story on that event was the last issue in the magazine’s short history. Anyway, I’ve been sold on Wi-Fi ever since and I suspect you’ll find my guest today is a big fan of it, too. He’s Dave Hagan, CEO of Boingo Wireless.
