I can’t go thought the process of registering since they send a text message to your iphone…..
Is there a workaround that?

I tried, like some of the other commenters, to enter the URL into my laptop (win xp) with no success.

What I’m planning for my next trip to Starbucks is this:

A modified version of Firefox that pretends to be an iPhone.
Like so: http://www.ismashphone.com/2008/05/using-firefox-w.html

A MAC Address changing software. The URL has some parts that looks suspiciously like a MAC address, so I”m thinking that if I were to find my phone’s MAC, then spoof that on my laptop and enter the URL into an iPhone spoofing browser, it may have success.

There’s probably more to it than that, but it’s worth a shot.

Typed the link sent to my phone into the browser. I had not opened the link on my phone yet. Would be nice.

I was hoping for the same workaround that was found previously to work. I am tempted to post my code here, to see if any enterprising people can get it to work with a laptop.
Anyone else have success with a laptop?

Additionally, if your card is registered online- Starbucks will give you a free shot/syrup in your drink
