Boingo today rolled out an application to make it easier for BlackBerry users to connect to its network of over 100,000 Wi-Fi hotspots. Available here, the app is a free, although the Boingo service itself goes for $7.95 per month.

The Boingo Mobile application improves the Wi-Fi user experience for BlackBerry owners by providing a convenient, automated way to connect, according to the company. It automatically notifies users when they are in a Boingo hotspot, and connects to the Boingo network with a single click.

It is initially available for the BlackBerry Curve 8900, BlackBerry Curve 8320 and BlackBerry Bold smartphones. Boingo plans to announce support for additional BlackBerry models as they become available.
