Hi Jackie,
I have both used the Vodafone and a Tmobile  pcmcia air card and Ifind the use 
of one, invaluable when I am travelling around the country.  As you might well 
guess, the software that comes with them is not too great but once you have got 
used to doing what you need to do to be able to get connected, they are fine.  
The reason why I swopped to Tmobile is price; I could get unlimited downloads 
from Tmobile for £20 a month and Vodafone said that they could not give me the 
same deal unless I was a new user.  That's the reason why I swopped so see what 
deal you can get out of them.  
regards

  Hi Gang

  Apologies if this is not the correct name for what I'm looking for in the 
subject of this post, but here goes.

  I want to get a card that plugs into my laptop so that I can send and receive 
Emails or browse the Internet on the move.  Actually, on the move is just what 
I won't be (smile.)  I'm hoping to be able to use my laptop at some point when 
I go into hospital soon for more back surgery.  I'm on the Vodafone network, 
and I know there is such a card that plugs into a laptop.  Has anyone used one 
and, if so, how have you got on with it?

  Thanks for any info anyone has about these and whether they are more trouble 
than they are worth, or even worth buying.  I do have my phone set up to send 
and receive Email, but I don't know if I will be allowed to use it, and 
wondered if a card for my laptop might be another option.

  Jackie
