Android 2.2 Froyo enables Portable WiFi Hotspot


Something else to look forward to in the next Android 2.2 update. TechCrunch has reported that the upcoming Android OS codename Froyo allows you to create your own WiFi hotspot on the device itself. This will come as standard without any rooting or “jailbreaking”.

The ability to create your own mobile WiFi hotspot comes pretty handy especially if you plan to share your current 3G/HSDPA connection with other WiFi devices. Definitely a better step forward than your usual USB Tethering.

Now that makes any Android 2.2 user a walking mobile hot spot as long as you’re within coverage and the area has sufficient bandwidth.
