UK company Total Hotspots is now offering a new service to British phone users track down public Wi-Fi hotspots at cafes and other locations via their phone. Subscribers on Vodafone, Orange, O2, and T-Mobile GSM networks in the UK can now send an SMS message "hotspot" to SMS number 84140. The service will then return a message containing the name, address, and phone number of nearby Wi-Fi locations, based on the phone cell the user is currently using. The service will not come cheap, however. Each request will cost 1 GBP (about $1.79 USD).
