As the iTunes WiFi store has gone online in a couple of cities in the US, I'd be interested to know if anyone has poked around behind the scenes yet - how does iTunes know it's at a Starbucks, and enables the 'special' shop mode? SSID? SSID + MAC addy? Some bonjour service running in the hotspot?

Cheers,

Mother
