Today there was a small note at the end of daily wireless newsletter I
recieve that google will now find WiFi hotspots on location searches. Just
enter "wi-fi" as a search term and the closest area code.

For instance last week David was asking for a place by Grabtree Mall (;P) w/
Wi-Fi to meet a client. I ran:
http://labs.google.com/location?q=wi-fi&near=4325+Glenwood+Avenue+27612&Sear
ch=Google+Search

In related news, Schlotzsky's Deli is now offering free wi-fi in their restaurants (there's one at 54 & 55), but I haven't been inside to verify it personally.
