Starbucks soft launches their wireless network in Seattle, Dallas, and San Francisco: as noted a few days ago on this log, Starbucks had started to light up stores. This article, which I wrote for the Seattle Weekly, followed up with MobileStar, Compaq, and Starbucks on the near-term plans. MobileStar confirmed locations (visit their site and use the location finder) and the soft launch; a hard launch with press announcements should happen by late June.
