I use my Dell Inspiron with my Sprint Blackberry as a tethered modem. You can get internet access anywhere there's a cell signal and as long as your laptop has battery or you have a power adaptor in your car, the laptop charges the Blackberry at the same time. I can sit in a cow pasture and sell stuff on eBay if I feel inclined : )

I have a mac laptop as well although they are much more expensive than PC laptops. They are much more reliable and so much less hassle (viruses etc.,) than PCs. I've also got a PC and Mac Desktop at home. The mac's last much longer and have far fewer issues.

maybe getting a "smart phone" with internet capability would be a cheaper option.

but in the long run it maybe cheaper to just get a new laptop for this

either way, the coolness factor goes up
