mobile broadband/internet access

[Britchick]

how easy is it to get hold of a dongle in the US? was thinking it would be cheaper to do this than pay for internet on site.

Is there a special for a 14 day stint or do you really have to pay $10 a day?

is it wireless access in OKW?

thanks

Well, I hope I don't regret this, but what do YOU mean by dongle? :unsure: (Ayuh, it can have a bit of a different connotation here). :wink:

[uscwest]

I'm hoping she means the broadband internet dongle. :tongue:

[Tink]

Yes, that's what she means I'm sure, but I've not heard of a dongle in that respect. :shrug: Clearly, don't know too much about 'net beyond aircard or "plug it in there!" Or WiFi of course.

So then, what is a dongle, exactly?

Thank GOODNESS you asked the question...because I couldn't even sort out how to phrase it!

[Tink]

Well, it could be a cool Celtic music instrument. :D Sort of sounds like it, eh? "Hold on a minute! I'll get me dongle then we'll have MIGHTY CRAIC!!!" :yes: :D
