| Re: I guess it makes sense? said by reelbigfish  :Everyone who has paid for T-Mobile Hotspot can still use them. I think it is good for casual use, but you would still have to pay if you want to use it more than 2 hours a day. I do sometimes, so I'm just sticking with my Hotspot membership as it costs the same to get a monthly subscription to AT&T. I live in a Verizon area so no one here has AT&T DSL to get free Wifi. If you spend more than 2 hours a day in a Starbucks, then you need to find other things to do with your life.

| Good Deal I always pay cash for my Starbucks stuff but now I will fill up my card and pay that way. 2 hours is more than enough to make me go there versus Panera which offers free also.
Of course I do have a wireless air card anyway......

This may be a dumb question, but do you need an iPhone data plan if you plan to only use home wifi and free wifi for internet connection? I'd probably get a data plan for the (rumored) GPS functionality, but was just curious. | |

| Free? I don't think so You have to have a starbux card and fill it up and register it to get free wifi? What a frickin' pain. I don't really care anyway because my company uses iPass.

| Re: Free? I don't think so I called Starbucks and the lady that work there said that they are on T-mobile, and not AT&T, but I think she's just the manager there and not the CEO, but as a manager she should know these things, I can understand if she's was just an employee who cleans the toliets there but come on a manager suppose to know these type of things. | |

| Starbucks Quite a few Starbucks are still in the process of switching from T-Mobile to AT&T.
As for the Starbucks card, you get to spend any money you put on it on whatever you want from Starbucks. So, assuming you actually purchase something at Starbucks at least once in a while, you aren't losing anything and getting what you'd normally get for the money plus WiFi, effectively making the WiFi free in the sense that you aren't paying any money for it. | |
