Hi TomT. I write to you from the 4 points in Bur Dubai. I am finishing off an old AONE6 (pre 15 Apr 2003 rules) sniff sniff. The 4 points is perfectly adequate for me for 3000 SPG points per night. I stayed here about 6 months ago and internet access was a problem. This time, they upgraded me to an Executive floor, which has a pc and broadband. They are currently upgrading the whole hotel to wireless, which they say should be done "in 2 or 3 days".
I have also stayed at the Hilton here, which was very nice.
FYI I walked out of the terminal building straight to the taxi queue. No hassle taxi trip to the 4 points (talked cricket with the Indian driver the whole trip) cost US$8.50.
I have not visited AUH or MCT, but if you have not been to the ME before, and you are just doing a ONE MR, I would recommend DXB. YMMV.

Happy travels. John
