AT&T has posted to its Web site details of free Wi-Fi access it is offering at hotspots around the country. Those hotspots include Starbucks coffee shops, airports, hotels, convention centers and bookstores.
Details about AT&T's plans to offer free Wi-Fi for iPhone users first appeared in May, but shortly after posting details of the plan, AT&T pulled them again. AT&T is the sole provider of data and voice plans for iPhone users in the United States.
AT&T says it has more than 17,000 Wi-Fi hotspots nationwide. The company counts 12 airports, 31 hotels, 23 universities, 18 convention centers, five sports centers, 8,000 or more restaurants, 700 or more bookstores and more than 50 supermarkets.
