US operator, AT&T Wireless has announced it will begin offering free AT&T Wi-Fi service to current and new iPhone 3G and iPhone customers. AT&T claims to have the nation's largest Wi-Fi network, with more than 17,000 hot spots including Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, and thousands of other locations.
AT&T plans to make the offer available to more mobile devices in the future.
"AT&T is committed to providing its customers with the best connectivity at the best value," said David Christopher, chief marketing officer of AT&T's mobility business unit. "We have the industry's leading lineup of smartphones, along with the nation's largest Wi-Fi network. It only makes sense for us to bring these unique capabilities together for our customers."
Free Wi-Fi access is also available with all AT&T small business broadband plans, AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet plans and with qualified AT&T LaptopConnect plans. For customers without an AT&T broadband or smartphone plan, Wi-Fi subscriptions are available for $19.99 a month, providing worldwide access to both AT&T and partner locations.
