I don't think so, isn't their wifi agreement with tmobile. Who knows I guess since they have that iTunes store thing situated with Starbucks. I guess that'd be wifi through tmobile? Wonder who will be providing the net access...I know we will soon get access to the iTunes music store on our iDevices but can I sit there and surf the net at Starbucks without any additional logging in?
Sounds about right.Of course NOT. Remember Apple is just here to rip you off! They just want you to buy their products so the only think you'll be able to do is buy music and videos from iTunes.
Thank you for that! I am as mad as the next guy but I still understand that Apple is in businesss to make money. Alot of people have forgotten that in the last 48 hours. Also, Apple is very protective of its intellectual property as well as physical. Stands to reason.....I work for Starbucks. Any time on the acutal wi-fi internet (not an iTunes port) is controlled by TMobile. So yes you could sit in starbucks and be online for free....but not using wi-fi.
ps. getting mad and saying Apple is there to rip you off is just plain retarded. they are a businesss, not a phlianthropic org. They are here to make money and why is it bad that they want control over their products? They are theirs after all....
Google makes their money by being charitable. The more services they give to the general public, the more people use their services and see their advertising, which is where they make their money.Yeah it's sort of like Google. People for some reason think they're some sort of charitable organization that puts the customer before money. Some may argue the customer does come first sometimes. Why? To make more money!
They encourage us to use their tools by giving us great tools. In the end, they give us great tools. Their method to making money is to give us great tools and charging advertisers, rather than sleezeball tactics like charging their biggest fans an extra 50% of actual money to beta test a new product.Then that's hardly charitable isn't it?
Wow a Hat Trick of thanks in one post.I work for Starbucks. Any time on the acutal wi-fi internet (not an iTunes port) is controlled by TMobile. So yes you could sit in starbucks and be online for free....but not using wi-fi.

You should really check your facts before making such a sharp point! :OThey encourage us to use their tools by giving us great tools. In the end, they give us great tools.
