AT&T finally launch FREE Wi-Fi for iPhone users in the USA

AT&T have finally launched their free Wi-Fi that was promised oh so long ago.

Simply head in to any participating Wi-Fi hotspot (for example Starbucks) and connect to the Wi-Fi as you usually would.

Fire up safari, and you’ll be asked to enter your mobile number, this will then trigger a text message from AT&T telling you that you’ve got 24 hours of access until your cookie expires. Our guess is that they are logging your MAC address or mobile number which needs renewing every 24 hours to monitor usage even though they offer ‘unlimited’ usage.

Either way, its a great way to stay connected when you are in the city, without using up your data bundle. It comes not a moment too soon either, especially with the onset of Over the Air Podcast downloads coming in iPhone 2.2.
