I've been using Winc for about 2 weeks and find it very nice. Before
purchasing, does any know of any other similar products to compare?

For those that don't know what Winc is, it is a
http://www.cirond.com/winc.php product that scans for wireless
networks. Many such as netstumbler do this but Winc also gives you the
ability to connect from the GUI.

It seems that the free Boingo client does everything that WinC does.

Using the client to manage your non-Boingo connections is free.
Connecting to a Boingo hotspot would require a subscription.

The client works outside the US, both as a connection manager and to
connect to various partner hotspots around the world.

Does it also have a repetative scan or do you have to continuously hit
a manual refresh button?
