AT&T Wi-Fi, Free For Me

AT&T Wi-Fi, Free For Me

April 25th, 2008

For some of us, this isn’t news at all. As an AT&T DSL subscriber, I have already been enjoying this little “benefit”.

AT&T and Starbucks on Friday announced the beginning of the rollout of AT&T Wi-Fi service at company-operated Starbucks stores, kicking off a nationwide effort that will continue through 2008.

At this year’s AT&T stockholders meeting in San Antonio, Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson announced that the companies have started deploying AT&T Wi-Fi at Starbucks locations in San Antonio.

As of May 1, qualifying AT&T high-speed Internet and Wi-Fi customers will have complimentary Wi-Fi access at more than 7,000 Starbucks locations nationwide. For millions of AT&T customers, that means more speed in more places — for free — is on the way. Analysts said this gives the telecom giant an advantage over competitors like T-Mobile.

Ever since I got the Nokia N810 I have been using the free AT&T Wi-Fi at the Starbucks inside Barnes & Noble stores we visit. This has to be one of the best things that has happened to me in a long time, even if it is being done by AT&T.

On a side note, I get the same bonus when I take the kids to McDonald’s too! Just think, I could sell my house, buy a class A motorhome and park in the McDonald’s parking lot for internet access. Ha! Okay, not.
