Windows Mobile Phones Get Love From AT&T — Free Wi-Fi

First it was the iPhone, then the BlackBerry, and now finally Windows Mobile will get free Wi-Fi access from AT&T. The carrier has 20,000 hotspots, and on September 14 customers with a qualifying plan will be able to use their Windows Mobile phone (with Wi-Fi) at any of the locations for free.

WM6.5 is expected in October so new phones should be able to get free Wi-Fi; AT&T states that Windows Mobile 6.5 will be supported with this plan going forward. While all AT&T Windows Mobile 6.5 phones going forward will be supported with free Wi-Fi, the first three supported Samsung handsets all run on Windows Mobile 6.1. That might leave the door open for some older Windows Mobile handsets, but there is no word if older versions of WinMo on other handsets will be supported.
