Am thinking - yet again - of getting one of these things, and am hoping for some advice, mainly because I'm getting hacked off with trying to find internet cafes that have pcs attached....
My main use will be email and a bit of surfing when abroad (mainly in the US) - am looking at only those that are wifi enabled - but does that mean that I'd be able to use one while staying in a hotel or a house that has broadband or a cafe that has wifi?
Sorry, I almost can't believe I'm asking that, but I need to be sure...
What kind of problems could I encounter, or would it be simply the same as taking a laptop (but smaller, of course!) - switch on and the device would automatically detect a connection? I really can't contemplate having to fiddle about with configuring anything [:#] I don't need a phone, purely a gadget that'll let me keep in touch as and when I want!
Are these parameters too narrow? I'm a complete numbskull when it comes to hand-held thingies....[:I]
