Good news for PDA owners, but it makes me wish I had 802.11b in my XDA. Where's that SD WiFi card when I need it?
"T-Mobile is building on its current HotSpot service, which is available in over 1,600 locations across the country. That includes 1,200 Starbucks stores, a number projected to increase to 2,000 stores by 2003. The service enables customers with a wireless-enabled laptop or PDA to access the Internet or Intranet at super fast speeds. T-Mobile is wholly owned by German telco Deutsche Telekom. It made its first move into the wireless LAN sector early this year when it acquired failed wireless ISP MobileStar.
The T-Mobile HotSpot service will be available in approximately 400 Borders Books and Music locations beginning in the first quarter of 2003 with Borders stores in California being the first to offer the service." Source: Andrew Farkas
