Theres a big wireless initiative going on at the moment with the government and Bt (i believe) bringing in wireless cities and then broadening further.

A friend of mine used to eat Chinese pork ribs when she was on her PC. The keys were stuck with what she referred to as "porky rib juice". She use to periodically WASH it!

plus companies like The cloud

Wifimax is a initiative to get broadband out there without needing cables. People like 3 are doing well in this space in fact for £10 a month you can have broadband from them via a usb dongle. Once their network is HSPDA enabled across the counrty the need for a physical line will have gone.

Best way to clean a keyboard (not laptop or powereed wireless ones please! ) is to chuck it in the shower. dry it slowly in an airing cupboard befor plugging it back in and it will be fine

She used to dunk hers in a washing up bowl and then dry it in the airing cupboard.

I wouldn't feel comfortable getting my laptop out in Accy McDonalds. I'd be too scared that someone would run off with it.

I eat allsorts at mine with having to do most of my studying on the laptop. The keyboard has a few crumbs down it, but its the screen that gets really filthy. I've had it a year and I've typed so much on it that the surface of the keys is wearing off and they're looking like normal 'untextured' plastic. Funnily enough the actual letters aren't wearing off.

I forgot about PSP's, though I thought phones mainly used GPS rather than wifi.
