Cost is a big factor, but when i know i will only spend 5 min or less, i dont really care about the price, but i f i am spending 30 min or more, i shop for the best price.

Not everybody has those fancy cell phones or likes the tiny screens on them (I for one, do not). And hey, satellites have been known to get knocked out from time to time. Anyway, I think its nice when cafes have a little reading section, and a place to leave cards or flyers for websites. I love internet cafes.

Basically, there is no practical need of visiting internet cafe's. It's possible to check emails and RSS with a good GSM cell phone or pocket PC. Some of them even has the capability of browsing the Internet with Opera. I'm pretty much turned off by the thought of visiting internet cafe's after some "interesting" experiences in Eastern Europe, where internet security isn't a top priority most places. Should I ever visit an internet cafe again I would go for comfort (nice soft chairs and space for elbows), security (possibility of deleting cookies, history etc. from the browser) and finally a decent menu of foods and beverages .
