One thing that should make you feel better is that "roaming charges" are a hot topic in the interior of Yucatan - so you know its there, but you will probably have to be there to find out who provides what service. Second, I suspect that the search for the net will be much like it is at the beach. Its there, but is still evolving in many places. There is an article in Yolisto about several of the additional sources of net service and how they have come, one by one, to the beach. Just knowing about them will add to your own knowledge base and help you find what is right for you.

For $400 US, one laptop will be sent to a needy child and one laptop will be sent to you. And yours comes with 1 year free T-Mobile service for wireless connectivity. Here is the Give One / Get One link: http://laptopgiving.org/en/index.php Although the primary reason for participating is to provide children with such a wonderful gift, many tech journals have raved about the unique operating system and child-friendly software. And the software is "open design" for those of you who have programming skills.
