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. UPDATE: Well it looks like Wi-Fi isn’t here quite yet. AT&T posted the info by accident and made a fail. [AT&T via MacRumors]
