This has been a recurring topic with no clear answers.
I say, hoof it over to the hilton. They have wireless for their guests. There is no sign on page, but I have no idea what their range is. John |

And someone will be sitting there with their laptop watching everything streaming by in the ether. Google "ethereal" for more information. :-)) Beware of ARP cache poisoning, also.

What about power for the laptop while camping by the plane. I don't think using an inverter through the aircraft battery would be a good idea ;-) |

What about power for the laptop while camping by the plane. I don't think
using an inverter through the aircraft battery would be a good idea ;-) I am looking at one of the Honda 1KW generators. They are small and quiet, but weigh 29 pounds without fuel. Use it to recharge the laptop computer, camcorder/still camera/cellphone batteries. Honda usually has a special reduced price on the field. |

And it will run just fine on 100LL. But if you don't want to get a generator, consider the phone charging booths. There's one near the gate in the north 40. I charge my phone there sometimes and I'll bet they will do your laptop as well. |

You can get a solar panel to keep the aircraft battery
charged and a solid state inverter should work fine to run your cellphone and laptop chargers. "john smith" wrote in message ... | What about power for the laptop while camping by the plane.
