Free Wireless that isn?t? I drove across town to go to an ?It?s a Grind? off Desert Inn and Durango to meet a friend from work. I set up both my laptops to get some work done and grab a cup of Java and a bagel, when the owner informed me that I needed to make a $4.00 purchase in order to use the internet. I said ?OK, I?ll have a small coffee and 2 bagels?, he then informed me that they were ?out of bagels?. I decided to pick up my things and leave. \r

I?ve been going to Coffee shops all over the US for the past 6 years using the Free Wireless hookups to work. I usually invite co-workers to join me and we end up spending a lot of money at these coffee shops. In all my experiences with privately owned and Mass Chain coffee shops I have NEVER been asked to make a minimum purchase. \r

Please change your postings of ?Free Wireless? to ?Wireless access with $4.00 purchase? to prevent situations like this. \r

Until then, I?ll take my business and my fellow co-workers to a ?Free Wireless? coffee shop. \r

Pros: Nithing comes to mind
Cons: The owner wants you to buy $4.00 of coffee or food to use his ""Free Wireless""
