The pre-May 15 "out the wazoo" convention rates are considerably less than daily rates. I went with Sara's plan and signed up for a month of T-Mobile. I now have permission from myself to take my laptop to Starbuck's for a month to check e-mail. I'll schedule an extra 1/3 tuning when I get home to pay for it. :-)<o:p></o:p> </div> <div>  <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> Dave Davis<o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <st1:City w:st="on">Renton</st1:City> (a Starbuck's on every corner), <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Washington</st1:place></st1:State><o:p></o:p> </div> <div> ----- Original Message ---- From: John Formsma <formsma@gmail.com> To: <st1:PersonName w:st="on">Pianotech List</st1:PersonName> <pianotech@ptg.org> Sent: Saturday, June 16, 2007 4:55:44 AM Subject: Re: wifi in lobby<o:p></o:p> <div> Oh good grief! You'd think that paying out the wazoo would at least get "free" wired hi-speed internet. I'll be walking to Panera Bread then. "Croissant and 1 MB of internet, please."
