Eh. There are exactly 0 Boingo hotspots in my city, and the ones in the nearest cities (OKC and Tulsa, 1.5 hours away each) are either in the five Barnes & Noble bookstores, or for hotel guests only.
(For the entire state of Oklahoma -- 38 hotspots. 5 of those are B&N, 1 is one level of the airport, 3 are restaurants/bars in very tiny towns, and the rest are hotels.)
On the other hand, Stillwater is practically blanketed in free wifi hotspots, due to the vast majority of restaurants in town offering it. This probably has something to do with the university and All Those Students, a fairly demanding market.
What is probably more useful is something like
http://www.wififreespot.com/
, which lists (user-added) free wifi hotspots, and certainly has a much bigger list than just what Boingo does for a fee.
