The first Starbucks in the U.S. with AT&T WiFi is now live and it works.

Located at 5321 Broadway Road San Antonio, TX 78209, this the first of what is supposed to be 7,000 company-operated Starbucks locations that will offer this service.

Free To  U-verse Customers

Because I am an AT&T U-verse customer, I now have free WiFi at Starbucks (and McDonald’s and Barnes & Noble.)

Logged On. Gave My AT&T User Name  & Password and…it worked.

When I was at the Starbucks store this afternoon, there were both AT&T and Starbucks employees doing the final install.

I walked in, logged on, and presto it worked.

More, later.

Reporters can call me on my cell: 210-410-3075 anytime up until midnight CST.
Google me here or here or here.
