Free AT&T WiFi on your S60?

MacRumors posted this story about all iPhone users now having free access to AT&T hotspots. Click through to check it out or for you ADD types, here’s the gist: Have an iPhone? Go to any Barnes and Noble, Starbucks or one of 71,000+ AT&T WiFi hotspots and connect from your iPhone. You’ll be greeted with a dedicated page where you can enter a valid iPhone number and access WiFi for free.

A reader then added that by faking the iPhone user agent on his laptop, he was able to enter a valid iPhone number and connect directly from his laptop for free. I see your laptop access, and raise you S60! I can’t test it out right now but I’ll bet that by installing the file from Harry Salminen’s post about iPhone-formatted webpages on your S60, you’ll be able to enjoy free WiFi by entering a valid iPhone number in your S60 Browser. Of course Salminen’s file is unsigned (and not open signable) so you’ll have to have a valid cert or hack your phone in order to install the tweak.

Check it out and let me know how if it works.
