I'm also posting this from the Starbucks in Pioneer Square, and have
waited five years to do something like this (network connectivity from
a coffee shop).  Very cool and exciting.  Much much thanks to the
provider of the access point!

I'm running Redhat 7.2 on a Dell Inspirion 4000 notebook with a
Orinoco Silver wireless card.  Just doing pump worked fine after doing
a "iwconfig eth0 key off essid any mode managed".  Bandwidth is great!
I'm running xemacs in X11 mode to write this, and its displaying on my
notebook with amazing little lag.

Thanks again, and I look forward to getting more active in ptp.
