ok Denver sucked since there wasn't ample wifi networks and there is the other factors, but the Borders were literally empty and that made it an optimal place to code- think all the books you need and an 11 mbps network, New York, the bookstores are always crowded and though there are many networks , in the fall its not too cool cause you can't sit outside, so you literally have to move from location to location, I plan on just saying shucks after room service has been to my room and doing the rest of work in my 10 by 10 room after moving the furniture around to be able to use the desk so that i can still get a signal and sit at a desk. And the week after next , am coming up with a zaurus, and the pocket pc's for sniffing wifi networks. You should always carry a smaller device that can pick up 2.4 and 5 GHz radio bands signals, you can find your own or you can just get a pocket pc and netstumber or similar software. That enables you to discover networks that you can use
