Borders - Kips Bay - WiFi HotSpot

Along with another well known book store chain Borders have finally decided to offer free wifi in their stores. To the best of our knowledge this is the only free wifi hotspot in the Kips Bay area.

Basically, you have two choices for setting up. There is a cafe area on the left as you enter, with seating for about 30 and some decent sized tables. There are only a couple of power outlets so you may have rely on battery power.

On the main sales floor you'll find a wide staircase leading up to the music section. There you will find about a dozen large, comfortable lounge chairs to relax in, but no power outlets.

The internet connection is provided by Verizon and is very slow. Ok for basic surfing and email, but not much else.
