Post Championship Wireless Internet

Although I am unsure about internet access at the actual Georgia Dome or GWCC, I know that Autodesk will have computers set up for access, and there will be a Sundial network.

However, the intent of this thread is to establish which hotels have wireless, for how much, and how to avoid this. So please, share your personal experiences with wireless at various hotels, so people know whether or not to expect having the internet.

Team 177 stayed at the Hyatt Regency in the Peachtree Center last year, which had wireless (or maybe wired/both) available for something like $10 a day. Being the ingenuitive students we are, some quick NetStumbling found that a couple of corners on our floor had wireless access, but more importantly, when out on the balcony from the side or front of the building, we were able to pick up the free wireless connection of a Cafe accross the street (they have good muffins too). It was a weak connection, but it worked for CD browsing and divisional rankings.

This year we are staying at the Marriott Downtown. Does anyone have experience with the situation there?
