I win!

As Doug Petch earlier did a comparison between his Cingular air card and Glenn Reynolds' Verizon air card, I thought it only fair to point out that I have them both beaten.

This game failed even to open up!

No doubt about it, my Sierra 750 is slowest!

Hey I'm STANDING in line at the airport for my flight -- blogging with one hand. Gimme a break!

Sheesh. This laptop is getting heavier by the second......

Hey! I saw you in line B blogging and didn't want to bother you. How about that non-bumpy flight?

Hey there, you should have said something. At least told me that I looked ridiculous blogging in the B line. Wouldn't have been a bother at all.

What was a bother was not the bumpy flight, but the insane drive north on I-95. No sooner did I hit the Delaware Pennsylvania border than it became a total parking lot. Turned on the radio and they said an overturned trailer had ALL FOUR lanes blocked. I managed to exit, and called a friend who knew the area and guided me home.

Nice job with the Dave Winer video!

Ah well if you're like me, my train of thought is broken up easily (unless I am typing away) .. but I should of said hi. I noticed the antenna sticking out of your laptop .. it looked like the same one Drudge was showing off on C-SPAN. He uses verizon, and as you have noted you use verizon too (I use it for home dsl) .. but are you paying the $79.99 fee for wireless access anywhere .. or less? Thanks.

I pay only $20.00 a month for GPRS wireless access. Plus the aircard works as a telephone once you plug in the headset. You get what you pay for though; the $79.99/month deal gets you fast Internet, while $20.00/month is barely faster than dialup. It works, but not well enough for things like gaming.
