Amie if you had broken the rules george would have told you, hearing justwhat can be achieved on the Hoof so to speak was fascinating and encouraging. since I followed Brian Lingards travels on and off trainsplanes and got a running commentary of the big exhibition or Convention inAmerica day by day, it gave me heart and a feeling that when I am a bit better I too may travel with Jaws, it only showed how Well Jaws cantravel I did get a bit carried away with the Shoe shine I admit, wondering if I could trade it in for ironing !Dorothy!----- Original Message ----- From: "amie.slavin" <amie.slavin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 10:55 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: buying a laptopHi Brian and list, I think I muddied the waters by mentioning hotels as anexample of a publicly available dial-up connection. I was only meaning that it is wrong to say that wireless is the only access option. You can access the net when away from home, by any of the usual means. Issues around price, and permission for that matter, would be, I would have thought, off-topic for this list - but the moderator rules, ok! Sorry to have caused an unintentional thread.

You usually can use a modem to make a dial-up Internet connection, but unless you're just down and uploading e-mail with no file attachments, dial-up is pretty slow if you're used to high speed. Some hotels customarily charge $10 or more per day for high speed Internet, but some waive this if you are a member of their Preferred or Frequent Guest Club. Fairmont gives me free Internet and local telephone calls as I belong to their President's Club. I also get complimentary overnight shoe shine, express check-in and check-out, 10% off on merchandise in their CP shops, which sells nice leather goods like portfolios, club bags and such. Also complimentary room upgrades if available. Some hotels offer a package consisting of High Speed Internet access, local and long distance calls and possibly other things for say $15 or $20 per day. While this may seem expensive, it can be cheap if you make a few telephone calls from your room or suite. Hotel long distance rates can be totally outrageous. Brian Brian K.
