Comments on: Free AT&T Wi-Fi Rolls Out At Starbucks – Finally http://www.geardiary.com/2008/06/03/free-att-wi-fi-rolls-out-at-starbucks-finally/ Everyone can understand technology; sometimes it just takes a little translating.

First you have to register your Starbucks Card account online with Starbucks. Then you open a WIFI account with AT&T and create a user name and login. As part of the process you supply them with your Starbucks account. By providing the account you are giving AT&T the ability to look at your activity with Starbucks for the purposes of determining if you've made any purchases/additions within 30 days. I think a work around for the one session of 2 hours per day is to buy multiple Starbucks Cards and use them as needed to create additional ATT WIFI accounts.
