The T-mobile "hot-spot" service is the way to go - Just about every Starbucks and Borders Books has one. If you park close enough you don't even have to get out of the car. I have used the service for the last 2 years and it works great. Since my mobile phone service is with them, it only costs $19.95 for unlimited connect time. I am able to connect to my company VPN and work from about about anywhere I travel @ 11mps. You just have to avoid the "liquid crack"!!!!
