Son of a—okay, AT&T. You sure you’re done now? Can I talk? Alright. According to AT&T spokesperson Fletcher Cook, the brief appearance of text suggesting that free Wi-Fi access for iPhone users was an included feature of AT&T’s iPhone calling plan was merely a case of “human error.”
That said, it seems that such a feature is in the cards, as Cook told the New York Times’s Saul Hansell.
“Our Wi-Fi network is a great way of differentiating the AT&T network and giving customers another reason to choose us over a competitor,” [Cook] said.
But more than that, he would not say. So rest assured, Starbucks devotees, you’ll be able to logon with your lattes at some point down the road. The next thing you see in this space about AT&T Wi-Fi should be a rock solid availability date, because I am so over this story.
