Borders K	You need to go online and register with T-Wireless ahead of time. I tried to connect at the Borders in Victor and nobody on Customer Service knew anything about this, so, don't count on Borders employees to get information. I bought a day pass and I connected once with the network, then I was not able to connect again. I later called T-Wireless customer service and complained, they credit me for the pass price, and said to call customer service from the hotspot next time so they can make any adjustments to the network. I think it's too much work. I may try it again if I have to meet a client in that part of town, or perhaps in a Starbucks... (I don't know of any other hotspots in that area).	T-Wireless
Starbucks	You need to register for the service with T-Wireless. See Borders.	T-Mobile HotSpot & iPass
