What a crock. Title should be Free AT&T WiFi for AT&T WiFi iPhone users, which is basically useless since you already have unlimited data anyway.... so why bother. It would have actually been useful if they gave free WiFi to any iPhone user, so roaming users could use WiFi instead of the expensive roaming data option.

So, After all the Steps and finally getting connected, Sure seems like a LOT to do just to get a connect?... Is ATT going to Cancel this again?..
