AT&T mistakenly announces Free Wi-Fi for iPhone Users...Again

From CNET
For the second time in less than six months, AT&T has mistakenly published a notice on its Web site indicating that Apple iPhone users would get free access to the wireless operator's more than 17,000 Wi-Fi hotspots around the country. But Wes Warnock, an AT&T spokesman, told CNET News that the notice was published in error.

"We have not made any announcement regarding free Wi-Fi and iPhone," he said in an email. "The Webpage was posted in error and is being removed."

The same thing happened in May when AT&T first launched free Wi-Fi access to its Laptop Connect customers, who subscribe to the company's 3G data service for laptops. Then, like now, a notice had also been published briefly on AT&T's Web site indicating free Wi-Fi access for iPhone users. It was promptly removed. And at the time, representative told the New York Times that the notice had been published in error.

I asked Warnock why AT&T had inadvertently published this information not once, but twice, and he had no comment.
