Hello all
Hope someone can help?
I am off to a hotel for a couple of weeks training for my new job: I have a laptop but it is quite old and isnt wifi-ed up and can only work when plugged into the mains!!
The hotel has wifi but no 'aerial socket internet connections'.
So - what can I buy to get internet access whilst up there?
Any suggestions would be MOST welcome
Thanks

Of course, if you would like to pay a lot more for it.
You have the specifications from the link I have provided. Take it along with your credit card.
Argos
Maplins
You can shop around for cheaper prices.0 -
IIRC the M700 can also take a PC-Card to add wi-fi - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sweex-Wireless-LAN-PC-card-PSMCIA-54MBPS-WI-FI-Card-UK-/2202939713500
