I had my laptop when I was in Virginia a few weeks ago, but for the most part my N810 Wimax was my device of choice. It went into the GPS mount when I got in the rental car and into my pocket when I went out on foot. It found bus stops for me, restaurants, parks, beaches, shopping, etc. I sat on the sand at Chesapeake Beach, MD and made reservations for the Chart House restaurant in Alexandria, VA. The thing was indispensable. I would have never used the laptop in that manner.
