This from Gizmodo this morning:

It's been a saga of the on again, off again, on again, off again type, but it looks like AT&T's free Wi-Fi hotspot access is live at last. 17,000 sites across the US are available to iPhone users, including the fabled Starbucks sites. According to AT&T's website, which also offers a hotspot locator tool, AT&T knows "Wi-Fi is hot, and free Wi-Fi even hotter, which is why we are proud to offer iPhone customers free access to the nation's largest Wi-Fi hotspot network." Interesting... after all the shenanigans, it looks more like AT&T thinks Wi-Fi is just "lukewarm", or maybe "tepid." But at least it's finally come good.

And here's the AT&T site that shows all the locations: http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/internet/wifi.jsp. I remember before somebody wondering about the free wi-fi for the iphone and it's good it's back again.
 
dead link.

Also, I may be wrong (and I am sure people will correct me, god bless this forum), but wasn't that free wifi only for people who also had AT&T broadband accounts?
 
hmm looks like the link just went down, it was working fine before, now it looks like att just wants to mess with our minds on everything
