I thought they also thought they checked that the MAC address of the phone corresponds to a plausible iPhone MAC address. So, you might have to change that on your wifi card first (kind of a bother.)

Boingo caches the user agent of the first HTTP request made via each MAC address and uses that to determine what type of device it is. They also offer (or perhaps offered, I haven't been to an airport in awhile) 1 free hour per iPhone MAC address ;)

  Relevant: once I signed up for Boingo. Never again. The only way to unsubscribe is to pick up a phone and call them.
