I wanted to buy a notebook to take to Europe with me and surf the next while there. The guy at Office depot said that the notebooks come with a lan card but you have to buy a monthly service (like you do for a cell phone) in order to use wireless overseas - even if your hotel offers free wireless. Is this guy correct or crazy? What type of lan card should I look for in a notebook so I can use the free wireless? Sorry the post is so long. Thanks.
