[P1] Tmobile hotspot

[Tom.Legare at comcast.net]

I tried it recently in a Starbucks, and from what I saw I was the only 
person in the place using a computer at the time.  The connection was 
not that great.... just a little faster than 56K dial up.  However, it 
did work with my ibook without any hassle.

I don't know what speeds are promised, and the slow speed could just 
have been that one store.
