I've travelled with a laptop for years, and that's what I usually use. But = the hotels I stay in are in all parts of the world, and while we take cheap loc= al phone access for granted in the U.S., in many countries it's exorbitantly expensive (the hotels charge a lot for it anyway). And ISPs that have world-wide dialup access charge by the minute. So Internet cafes and hotel business centers are frequently the most economical way of connecting to the Internet.
