In a move which marks the strategic expansion of the June-launched `Bitbuzz Freedom' service to Dublin, Wi-Fi provider Bitbuzz has revealed that the complimentary Wi-Fi service, which was recently rolled out on Dublin's Grafton Street, has now been extended to some areas of Henry Street, Temple Bar and the Hibernian Way.

The expansion of complimentary Wi-Fi - unfolding several 20-minute Wi-Fi sessions - to the busiest shopping streets in Dublin coincides with the Christmas shopping frenzy, especially since smartphone users can make use of Bitbuzz Freedom for benefiting from shopping apps and social networking sites that help them make price comparisons as well as stay in constant touch with family and friends.

The advantage of using Bitbuzz Freedom is largely rooted in the fact that Wi-Fi provider Bitbuzz has effectively utilized multi-band wireless point-to-point backhaul technology for the service; thereby providing a more stable wireless broadband experience and giving the users the ability to continue their Web surfing process while moving around.

With Bitbuzz having recently touch the `1 million' milestone in terms of registered users, the company's managing director, Shane Deasy, said that the launch of Bitbuzz Freedom on Grafton Street has recorded "excellent levels of usage."

About the expansion of Bitbuzz Freedom service, Deasy said that "complimentary Wi-Fi is especially important for international tourists visiting the city," and added: "We anticipate further pick-up of this new service in the run-up to Christmas."
