antoniosk: I already have an E61 and an E65. Can I get free wifi too.....?
heavenly_wild: Really cool gesture from Nokia but come on, from the coverage areas shown, you must be standing within a block to get wifi in any one area! They could've at least made wifi available on all of Parnell's main strip, for example, rather than just one block.

C'mon! Be happy with what you have. More than nothing anyway.
There are many "things" with the offer. I think the most important is using Kordia, which is really a down, because of its limited coverage. Although they have hotspots in many more towns it is still very limited when compared to the coverage you get from Cafenet or Telecom Hotspot.
However partnering with Telecom Hotspots could upset Nokia's bg partner Vodafone.
I don't think Vodafone is in this because otherwise they would be in the press release. I think "New Zealand only" is a way to tell people "see, this is one more thing parallel imports can't do". Remember Nokia New Zealand probably has some quotas and every time people buy parallel import they probably benefit Nokia Hng Kong or something like that.
As for how to lock it to certain devices, who knows? Asking for a serial number on login page, or using some header fields in the browser request, such as platform name and model?
