Hi Folks

I am UK based but travel worldwide. I currently use a wireless laptop with a Vodafone PCMCIA data card to access the Internet (although I will use an unsecured wireless network whenever I can find one). Using the data card is very expensive and very slow and unreliable in some countries as it uses the mobile phone networks.

Can anyone suggest a better and cheaper way to access the net on the move. I appreciate that other countries may have a much cheaper solution and it may be that I can take advantage of this.

Any suggestions folks?

Thanks
David
