No keyboard problem here, since I'm using my own laptop...

Ever since arriving in Paris yesterday, I've been baffled by the state
of wi-fi here. When I checked into my hotel, I found a little wi-fi sign
on the counter, which was good news, since I selected the hotel
partially because Hotels.com said the place had wireless Internet
access. But then I turned on my computer and opened my Web browser, only
to discover that the hotel had the nerve of charging 25 euros a day for
the privilege. That's more than 30 bucks to us currency-challenged
Americans, which is sheer lunacy.

So I briefly sunk into a cyber funk and wondered if I'd be able to
tolerate being offline



Andy, I had the same problem in the UK at an American hotel, even though I thought I had the solution. Ended up first buying a card to use the Internet and then going into London where I found some interesting Internet cafes. And the currency challenge was a problem to me ..
guess the keyboard was ok? Bonnie Bracey
