hmmm

How does that in any way differ from what you can do now? I am referring to being able to use a softphone from a hotspot.

 It varies in that, if I understand the point of the announcement correctly, your Vonage account will be sufficient for you to connect to any Boingo-affiliated hotspot. Interesting question I have: will that also allow use for email or surfing (one presumes not).

VOIP companies are becoming more like oppressive telcos for which they were created to be distanced from. ;)

...plan to allow their wireless customers to roam between the Cingular network and the SBC Wi-Fi network;...
...to which I think they're referring to going from a cell or PCS network to the WiFi and maybe back to the cell/PCS net, possibly during a call. The idea is to get your minutes off the (expensive) cell net and onto another (less expensive) net.
