Wireless with cellular

Peaches · 03-19-2004

When the kid is in tech school, he will not have access to the internet except for a handful of public computers which are apparently constantly in use. He could be in tech school for over a year.

The only way I see it being possible is with a laptop (they don't have room for desktops which means I have now inherited FrankenComputer currently festering in the basement) and a cellular connection.

IIRC, cellular speeds used to be slower than using a can and string, but that was 2+ years ago.

Any thoughts on this? And what would be the cost be to get a standard laptop ready for cellular?

Thanks!
