I was following right along with you until that one.

It's annoying that hotels charge $9.95 for an internet connection.
I've seen this identical complaint about $9.95 per MAC before.
Last time, I think it was from someone who had two different PCs with built
in WiFi, and he couldn't use them both, not even one at a time. Or maybe
it was a PC and a PDA... something like that.

In Denver, the Hilton offers free WiFi, but charges for breakfast. The
Embassy charges for WiFi, but has free breakfast.

One could always shop for the accommodations that worked for them.

In Sunnyvale, the Maple Tree Inn has free internet, free breakfast, but
you have to get a signon token from the front desk. Winner.

Spoofing yourself as a "secured" WAP, intentionally to capture other
persons' $9.95 login credentials, sounds like an obvious case of grand
theft.
