As I have recently started using AT&T’s U-verse service at the house this news could be good for me.

AT&T (NYSE: T) and Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ: SBUX) is making the wireless Internet service free to all qualified AT&T broadband and U-verse Internet customers. AT&T officials say they have 12 million of these customers. The company also has another 5 million remote access service business customers that will be able to use the service.

AT&T now has more than 17,000 U.S. hot spots and more than 70,000 globally.

Starting this spring, Starbucks is also giving its card holders two free hours of free Wi-Fi service per day at participating locations.

I will have to see how this plays out as the service is really in my roommates name. I have the account number but not sure what else I will need to be able to connect at a Starbucks.
