To force the APN to be used exclusively with handsets, because the provided services aren't suitable/scalable for high speed PC modems. This is just a wild and unfounded speculation from my side. I have no idea what AT&T does. But I read from the APN docs that they would prefer other APNs for straight Internet access. From what I have gathered, mobile operator IP networks are typically a mess of firewalled services and weird accounting solutions, making it really inconvenient to provide both high speed Internet access and semi-private WAP gateway access using the same APN. But I don't know if this is true for all operators, and I don't know anything in particular about AT&T.
