Possibly but I'd be willing to bet the silent bandwidth leeches probably ran off a good bit of their regulars in the first place. And I'd be willing to bet their weekday business wouldn't take a big hit considering there aren't THAT many people that hawk around a coffeeshop waisting away their Saturdays and Sundays.
Honestly...I'm at a loss of why one would spend hours on end in a coffeeshop on the weekend. Even the checking e-mail thing doesn't really jive with me considering so many cellphones and PDAs have the ability to connect to the net for e-mail purposes.
