Re: Wireless Internet for Laptops
If you plan to use Verizon Wireless Broadband and have not yet purchased a PC, I recommend that you go to their website and they recommend some PCs there. If you already have a PC, you can purchase a PC card from Verizon and insert it in your laptop if it has a PC Card Slot. If it doesn't have a PC Card slot, then you can purchase the USB card from them. In addition to purchasing the card, you will have to subscribe to their monthly service. I think it costs something like $59.99 + taxes if you have a cell phone account with them.
I am speaking of Verizon because I have their service. Not sure about other companies as I never looked into those.
