"Google is trialing an interesting new service in Jakarta, Indonesia, where WiFi Passport, an Android app that includes access to a variety of WiFi hotspots, has been spotted.\r\n\r\nIt's not easy to get speedy, reliable Internet access in cities like Jakarta so WiFi is a popular option -- with even carriers offering access points. Google and partner MOGPlay have set up a range of hotspots which WiFi Passport users can access directly from the app, with no need for repeat passwords/log-in.\r\n\r\nThe service is free for an initial 10 days, thereafter it costs\u00A020,000 IDR (under-$2) for 20 days and\u00A050,000 IDR (under-$5) for 50 days.\r\n\r\nWe can see how this would be attractive in emerging markets, but for now the trial appears limited to Jakarta.\r\n\r\n\u27A4\u00A0WiFi Passport [Google] Via Google Operating System\r\n\r\nThumbnail image via\u00A0littleny\u00A0/ Shutterstock\r\n\r\n&amp;amp;nbsp;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
