AT&T hotspots not open to iPhone
by J.G. October 27, 2007 5:32 AM PDT
I was reminded of this yesterday while shopping at Barnes & Noble, an AT&T hotspot site. Considering the deficiency of Edge when used for data, AT&T should open its nationwide array of Wi-Fi sites to some of its best customers -- iPhone owners. Rather than pay $10 to use the AT&T hotspot for a lunch break at Barnes & Noble, I chose not to use my iPhone for data. That must occur thousands of times each day, disgruntling many a customer.

At this point, I think that the idea of city provided Wi-Fi in the United States must be declared a failure. Most projects never got off the ground. Of those that did, many are inadequate. For example, Metro-Fi's signals are too weak to be useful and often require the purchase of booster antennas costing more than $100 and $20 per month for premium service. That is not free Wi-Fi.

If that isn?t the most expensive phone in the world and it does
not even appeal to business customers because it doesn?t even
have a keboard, which makes it not a very good e-mail
machine! It may sell well or not, I don?t know, but we have our
plan and I like it very much. We have great windows mobile
devices in the market today. We have the Motorola phone for
just $99, it will play pong, it will do e-mail, do internet, ?..
I like our strategy I like it a lot!
