Chainstores with wifi access

Starbucks has wifi for a monthly fee, unless you are signed up with the
right ISP at home

Apple stores reportedly have wifi.  I have not tried one yet

Barnes and Noble has wifi for a monthly fee - free if you have SBC
(broadband?) internet at home

You can add Jack-in-the-Box across the street from Campus in University
Center.  Also Panera, on Bison and MacArthur.

The Jack-In-The-Box across from UCI is a test Hot Spot from cafe.com

may not be a chainstore, but The Amsterdam Coffeehouse in Laguna Niguel
has wireless, likely due to being near a Kinko's.

It appears many or all Kinkos have an agreement with T-Mobile for wifi,
with plans "as low" as $6/hour.
