They have coffee and bagels in the morning, and make great, cheap sandwiches for lunch. They have recently created an upstairs area that you get to via a spiral staircase for eating and working. Recently put in free wi-fi. The owner's name is Trish, and she is a great, friendly person.</p> I would recommend Sydney’s Cafe, at the corner of 14th and Walnut, right next to the Boulder Bus Station.

And as much as I love "sweet little local places with great brew and free wifi", I spend a big portion of my life on the road. When I'm not in Colorado, that desire generally gets abbreviated to, "Dude, where's the closest Starbucks?" My HotSpot/T-Mobile service is the best $19/month I could possibly spend. It makes remote wifi deterministic -- Starbucks/Einstein Bros/Kinkos/Barnes and Noble/Borders all have HotSpot service nationwide.</p> <p>For free nationwide wifi, Panera Bread is the only candidate that comes to mind.</p> <p>Some folks swear by their Verizon PCMCIA cards, but $80/month seems to be a bit steep. I'd definitely get better coverage, but I'm not sure that the 4x multiplier would be worth it.</p> As I just mentioned, I’m a big fan of working at Houses Of The Bean.

For free nationwide wifi, Panera Bread is the only candidate that comes to mind.

Some folks swear by their Verizon PCMCIA cards, but $80/month seems to be a bit steep. I’d definitely get better coverage, but I’m not sure that the 4x multiplier would be worth it.

But my husband works in Boulder. He might. I'll ask him. Boulder seems to have a good population of techies from what I can tell.</p> I’m in Denver, so I don’t know of any good hangouts.
