Do you think Starbucks regrets having T-Mobile as their wireless internet provider?

Starbucks always seems to be ahead of the game. But it still surprises me when I am in one and I have to pay for Wireless Internet access. I mean, this made sense when it first came out as they were ahead of the curve.

But now, Wi-Fi is free everywhere. Jack in the Box announced this morning that they are rolling out free Wi-Fi in 9 of their California restaurants; with more to come. Not too mention every time a mom and pop coffee shop springs up, wireless always seems to be free.

I avoid them now because of it. I hate having to figure out what my T-Mobile account info is. It just seems outdated for a coffee shop to still charge for access. I bet a lot of people avoid them over it.
