Please answer a question (s). I have a laptop with a wireless card that I used to get email on the road. Gave it up because it was toooo sloooooow. Can I use this same laptop within a WiFi net? Is there something else needed? What is the procedure for using it in a free or pay environment? Hate to appear like a complete dummy, but I took a coffee break yesterday and the technology passed me like a dose of Feenamint ! Thanks in advance for your help.

Perhaps the term "wireless" was misleading to some. When I bought a new cell phone, I also bought a Verizon program which permitted me to use my cell phone as the dial up while we were on the road. Software was loaded on the laptop and I connected the cell phone by cable to the laptop. This was not a configuration with a true wireless card and antenna integral to the laptop. Cheers, Chuck
