Popular Cafes here in Seattle (Victrola, Vivace) have been shutting off the wireless on weekends for at least a year now. People seem used to it.

Vancouver's most popular local chain, JJ Bean, has never adopted wireless and they continue to be massively successful based on the quality of their product. They're rapidly expanding.

Many other notable cafe's such as 49th parallel also don't have any wireless.

I guess it's all up to local culture.
