So if you connected to your home WiFi network. Left for work, switched to EDGE during the day, then came home, it will recognize and rejoin your network automatically with no prompting. Same thing if you power it off then back on. As soon as it sees a hotspot it recognizes, it will connect automatically.
That's how it's been working in East Lansing anyway.
I'm not sure you'd want it connecting to any random hotspot you haven't specifically chosen anyway.

Yes, I know this. LA has a citywide WiFi network. That's the one they were trying to connect to. The iPhone seems to have difficulty finding and or maintaining a connection to it.
