Seattle is rich in good, independent coffee shops that offer free, or mostly free wireless access. Coffeehouses throughout the greater Emerald City are now offering wireless access to the Internet. But while the larger outfits (Starbucks, Tully's, Ladro, etc.) have grabbed gobs of attention with their for-pay wireless services, it is Seattle's independent coffeehouses that truly deserve the spotlight. Places like Starbucks charge users $5 a day and $30 a month to use their Internet connection through providers liek T-Mobile. But independent coffee houses that offer Wi-Fi for free say it's a win-win for everybody. Customers get to use the internet while they drink their coffee and the cafe gets more customers, not to mention customers who, ideally, stay longer and drink more coffee.
