I was reading that story at MacRumors and other places, about possible rate plans for the iPhone from Cingular. From the article:

Is this related to the Wi-Fi in any way? All along I'd assumed that I could walk into a Panera (or any other cafe or public place that that had free Wi-Fi) and simply "get online" with the iPhone, the way I do with my PowerBook. Or is that something I'd have to pay Cingular for? Or do those $4.99 and $19.99 "data plans" refer strictly to getting online/accessing the Internet via the phone and phone service (so you can do it anywhere, at anytime)? I'm hoping it's the former (I continue to pay what I'm paying, and anytime I'm in range of a wireless network, I can check mail or hope online). Again, let's not focus on the numbers/pricing (that's not important). I just want to know if I'm understanding this right or not. |

Free Hotspots will still be free to access, just like your PowerBook.
Yeah, the data plans are for surfing the web while in your car, or somewhere there is no WiFi. Some say they will force you to get a data plan with that phone though. If that happens, you won't have a choice but to buy the plan. I doubt they'll force it though. They would make way more money from you on data usage be KB.

I just noticed today that iPhone has it's own tab now. Has it been there for a while or is this why the store has been flakey lately?
