Hi,

Does anyone use a "3g" card in their laptop for mobile communications? What's the performance like on your network? Can you ramp up huge bills without knowing?

Would it be possible to have the SIM in a standard phone haddset and sling a cable (or Bluetooth) between the handset and the laptop - rather than buying a dedicated SIM and PMCIA card for the laptop?

These public Wifi spots - I think I have seen them at Starbucks - how are they charged for? Expensive?

Ta,

Clive
