AT&T Wifi at Starbucks for iPhone rollout

[jerfrank]

Today, when I visited my local Starbucks in Logan, UT and later in Salt Lake City, UT I noticed that WiFi for the iPhone was enabled. Here is a picture: http://jeremyfranklin.org/2008/04/30/att-wifi-at-starbucks-for-the-iphone-begins/

I noticed it as well. They had both the T-Mobile and AT&T signals at the one near here. I was in the drive-thru, so I didn't exactly mess with it, but they definitely had both signals. I'll have to go in sometime and see what the deal is.

So, what, just enter your number and go? Is there a cap or limit on time used, because I can sit in a 'Bucks sipping on a coffee for an hour...way cool though, kind of makes life that much better for us iPhoner's

It appears that you login through AT&T wifi and it gets rerouted to T-Mobile. A T-Mobile screen appeared after I entered my phone number.

@touchyphone Yeah, you just enter the phone number. I have been at Starbucks for a while (more than 2 hours) and I just had to re-login sometimes. I wasn't consistently on the iPhone though.

2 Hours? Isn't that loitering? That's totally cool.

OP, what's behind the camera? You look like you saw a ghost!

I see dead people on my computer screen.
