    Hi All,

    I'm not even sure if this is the proper place to ask any information on these but I rely on accurate information from this site for almost everything else that I need so I thought I would take a stab at it.

    I am thinking of getting a Noika N800 and would like to know what everythone thinks. I would like to get this toy so I can connect to the internet while on the go without carrying my 17" laptop and my Palm is really hard to browse the internet and the screen is really small. The only thing I find confusing is that I know that it will connect on WiFi connects if there are some but unfortunately there are not tons of those for free. The only other way it seems to connect is through bluetooth with your cell phone but that is not a great option either because of the cost - it is very expensive. So does anyone that has one know how you connect to the internet if you can't access either one of those methods? Does that mean that you can access the internet but will need to pay to browse on whatever network pops up? I'm assuming but I would really appreciate anyone that has one to give me a few tips and pointers.

    Thanks.

    You either take your chances on finding a free hot spot or you pay for a connection.

    Many cell phone providers have an "always on" type of monthly service for internet connections. As I recall, it cost $50.00 to $100.00 USD per month..
