BT Wi-Fi deal with Starbucks means more free hotspots for iPhone users
British Telecom has announced a new deal with the Starbucks chain of coffee houses in the UK which will see around 650 new wireless hotspots spring up over the coming months.
Not only does this directly benefit BT's 4.6 million BT Broadband customers, but iPhone users (on O2, naturally) can access them for free, thanks to BT Openzone premier hotspots being part of the monthly tariff.
CEO of BT Openzone, Chris Bruce, said, "Starbucks is the perfect place to work or catch up over email. Use of our Wi-Fi doubled last year and coffee shops are increasingly popular as a third place to work or log on to the internet. We're constantly looking to boost the choice of places to connect - where people want it. The location of Starbucks stores in the high street and travel hubs is helping to extend the reach of Wi-Fi to customers."
