I haven't done it in the convention center, but if you have phone service (meaning x number of bars), you should work fine using the laptop.
We use the Verizon embedded cards and that holds true for us.. you need to have cell service to be able to get on the web.. if you have cell coverage in your booth, you'll be fine. costly if you use up too much of your data plan by having it on ALL DAY, but it SHOULD work.

I been asked to set up laptop to access the web to demo a new marketing site that we have setup via the att cell network. It work fine here locally. My boss's boss want to use it to access a web site during a convention next month in the Chicago convention center. His boss says his cell phone work there, so the data service should work there too. I not so sure it that is true. wireless service in the booth is not cheap ($1000/day) for the 4 day conversion. Has any one tried to do cell data in Chicago convention center(McCormick Place)?
