I know some "legit" ones but they cost. The bigger hotels in ATL have
wireless access through a company (Waypoint?). You sign up for an
account, and supposedly can access from any of their (Waypoints?)
providers ( == hotels). I know the Westin in downtown is a good place to
start...and I'm sure you could stop in their cafe for some coffee.
