On WiFi, T-Mobile, Starbucks & AT&T Make Up, Drink Coffee

Now that was fast! T-Mobile which had sued Starbucks last week over the coffee chain partnering with AT&T and offering free WiFi has settled with the Seattle-based coffee giant. The terms of the settled were not revealed, though I think the iPhone 3G launch might have made AT&T push some buttons and get this whole thing resolved. We are hardly surprised by this out of court settlement: 53% (62 out of 111 votes) of the respondents to our poll basically picked “out of court settlement” as a likely outcome.
