One, please stop doing stories about Starbucks, it's stupid, and has nothing to do with news or gadgets.

Two, and more importantly, THEY ALREADY ANNOUNCED THIS. Months ago. In fact, it's the reason they started saying wifi was "free." it's been free, for more than a year- they're just throwing the term out there so they'll get free dumb promotion. Thanks for giving us a worthless article that does nothing but reinforce that for them.

Is Your parent company involved with them?

This was posted under the alt category, which means it has a little less to do with gadgets and more to do with technology and culture. Starbucks is a company very in tune with technology and culture, even if they don't always get it right IMO. Wifi was free to Starbucks Card holders (and having a card is free) in 2-hour blocks and employees round the clock, but it was also a hassle for guests. The Wifi that exists now is much more open and limitless for anybody.]]>Aug 12th 2010 3:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/Aug 12th 2010 10:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/Aug 12th 2010 11:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/Aug 12th 2010 11:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/starbucks-reveals-plans-for-a-digital-network-made-up-of-exclu/Aug 12th 2010 3:57PM
