[ale] wireless at Starbucks



I stopped in to a local Starbucks as I'm waiting while the shop works  
on my truck.  Fired up my laptop and it spotted two networks, tmobile  
and AT&T.  For grins, I selected the AT&T network, then opened up my  
browser which took me to an AT&T login page.  The page had a drop down  
box for email address domains, which included bellsouth.net.  I  
entered my bellsouth email address and password and Voila!  I'm on.  I  
guess I have some wireless access with my dsl service that I wasn't  
aware of.

Anyway, I did this all under OSX, so I'm going to try it under Linux  
next. ;)
