If your friend/family happens to have high-speed internet, you could hook up your BN to their router during the day or evening, download it all, then sort it later in the privacy of your room. Then you could reconnect the BN to the router in the morning and send what you wrote the night before. Just a few thoughts.

In the past, I just did dial up with the BN when I traveled. But I didn't want to deal with dial up anymore, since hotels are coming up with cute ways to charge for local calls to get in on the email deal. So, basically, what I was trying to figure out was if I will have to connect my mPower to friends/family's modems. Sounds like that's definitely the case, which sort of loses the ability to do email privately in my room at night. Oh well. I'll just be good and go no mail on everything, but I always feel like I'll miss something very important when I do that!

First, There are several ways to connect to the Internet. There is dial-um and broadband. You know what dial-up is. Broadband includes both cable and DSL. You can also get to the net via a network. Network connections inclode: ethernet wireless and bluetooth. When you go to an hotel, you can use your ethernet card to connet there. Your friends and family may have broadband connections in their homes and they may also have a network that you can connect to. Some of your friends and family may just have telephones. You will have to ask in order to find what type of connections are available in each place you're going to visit. Your next problem will be to configure your BrailleNote to meet your needs. My suggestion would be to read the manual on connectivity, and then come back to us for more help.
