Now ATT can violate the federal wiretapping laws and report to the government anything you do from Starbucks, too.

Guess AT&T will keep me as a DSL customer after all.

They did not tell me I would only be able to have the basic speed as my fastest speed option. am with T-mobil and pretty happy , but this new deal with Starbucks has me looking at making a change with my T-Mobile contract coming up to expire. If AT&T wireless will start offering a better airtime for the money deal , I would switch , so that I coud bundle my services , and save some sweet coin. Good article.

But what about the poor shmucks who aren’t T-Mobile customers, but signed that yearly contract for $29.99 a month to access HotSpot services. What happens to them? Will T-Mobile still expect them to pay $29.99 per month for a service that AT&T is offering (ostensibly) for free?

If you’re a residential subscriber or use the entry-level business packages, you can add unlimited wifi for $2 per month.

Sounds like this might be related to Starbucks partnerships with Apple. Free wifi for iphone/itouch users coming soon?

I never said in my post that T-Mobile users were out in the cold, I just stated that Starbucks has switched to AT&T for their wi-fi hotspot service provider.

However, to avoid confusion, I added an update to the post.
