Actually the coffee house, shopping mall, etc. are all using the "free" WiFi to draw in customers. For the price of a Latte or sandwich, or whatever they let you use the WiFi. But sometimes this backfires on them as the "college kids" mob all the tables and buy a bottle of water or a coffee and nurse it for all afternoon crowding out other patrons. We just had a wonderful coffee-house here in Grand Anse, Grenada go out of business for just that reason. The people here on the island are just too polite and laid back to think of asking the kids to leave or buy something more.
