You are so off-base it's not even funny. I can't believe 3 people upvoted you. I'm talking about native iPhone apps that try to provide some WISPr-related functionality -- the kind of apps ATT would pay somebody to do if WISPr wouldn't be "build in", OR, if they actually wanted to provide more features than just the basic login. And the "magic whitelist" is a whitelist on the iPhone itself, that disables the iOS "built in" WISPr support so that native apps work. One of these apps is Boingo. But you are right about one thing: sometimes I also feel that it seems easier for people to bash on the internet without any knowledge.
