as in places such as airports and cafes where it is easy to set up 802.11b. just plug a card into a laptop, will travel. why waste money on 3G. These airports and coffee shops aren't going to be free. What are you going to do, set up an account at 10 different locations (airport, starbucks, hotel, mall, etc.)??? And JUST when you REALLY NEED that connection, you won't be anywhere near any of these places. And what if you are out of town or MOBILE? Far easier, more flexible (and probably cheaper) to have a 3G hookup. At Starbucks in many large cities you can pay something like 65 cents a minute or buy a monthly subscription. I have a subscription to get wireless access in any San Francisco-area Starbucks for $30 a month. All this sounds okay, but think about it closely. My Starbucks subscription costs $360 a year. My firm isn't likely to pay hotels $10 a day too often--that might come to $1,000 a year for me, and when you add in the other partners, we're talking a big expense. special.northernlight.com
