This just means all YOUZ HotSpot "non-payers" are going to slow down my connection today.

I use Hotspots for about 3-4 hours everyday

I can't find a single participating HotSpot near me in Birmingham U.K. BooHoo

Well I'll be out and about and there are plenty of spots available around the Atlanta, GA area. I wish more spots were free (sandwich shops, bookstores) since I would frequent them more often and likely purchase more items.

Great timing, since my dsl isn't connected yet and I was about to shop on the internet for baby stuff, this is great. :lol: Lots of places to pick, hmmm, where will it be.

I live many miles away from any of those listed so I guess I will be going home to my un-free wireless network.

[ctmagnus]

I concur. Still not ubiquitous enough, imo.

Ok, can someone install a free hotspot down here ? :mrgreen:

[gorkon280]

Only one hotspot here and it's in a hotel. I guess I will have to pirate...hrm...borrow someone's unsecured AP! Or use my own secured ap!

I just returned from a lunchtime trip to the local shopping mall in Hicksville, NY where I thought I'd sign on (for free) at a T-mobile Starbuck's location.

Well, no sign of any promotional materials so I decided to log on (I have a T-mobile Hot Spot account that I prepaid for x minutes awhile back) I figured I'd see a message on the log in screen about how to get the free access... nothing. So I try my regular log-on and get online. After a few more minutes of trying to figure out how to find the free sign on, I look at my account status, and my prepaid minutes are dwindling, so much for the idea of maybe they don't charge existing customers today.

Well, overall I guess I didn't get the "free" experience I thought I would get today. I figured I would try it and see how well it what implemented. Not too well, IMHO. Lot's of hype but not too easy to use . Perhaps I missed something? Being an existing customer ....?

What kind of experiences did others have? It's not too late, I could go get some free minutes later today if I find out how.
