Speaking of that, I noticed that Sip and Surf was also listed on the website,
they are NO LONGER in the Atrim building, since I work two doors down from them.
Someone there told me that their lease was up or something?
Good site, Jason

The Strand (is that what it's called?) on 8th and Charnelton (bookstore,
coffee shop and Cosmic Pizza under one roof) I believe has free WiFi. Last I
checked, 5th Street Market did as well, but I know they are doing some
contruction in the food area downstairs (Café Yumm and Metropol have moved
out to make way for something) so I don't know if they still have it. The
Indigo District on 13th and ... Pearl maybe? - they have free WiFi.
Here's a list, there are a few more out there, I'm sure.

Anyone know how well the wi-fi access is downtown for laptops?
Depends on precisely where you are. I've done a little bit of
wardriving through town and coverage of open APs is spotty.
Someplaces will have several to choose from and others will
have none. The biggest concentration seems to be in the ~3
blocks around the uni. As you get further from the uni, the
number of open APs goes down signifcantly. The other big
concentrations are in areas with dense retail / professional
offices. For instance, the other night sitting at the
Albertson's gas station on Coburg, I found 17 AP's, 6 of
which were open, 3 of which were not on captive portals.
I'd suggest experimenting with Kismet in / around your own
typical haunts. If you are willing to do WEP cracking your
options go up significantly, but that has some obvious
negative ethical implications....
