Apple iPhone info wanted

Use WiFi. I have an iPod touch (similar beast in many respects) which connects to the wireless network for email/web etc.

Thanks.

I can do that at home, but need a solution for when out or travelling. And it seems wrong to have to pay for a data package of 150 mb when I already have 5gigs of access to the NextG network

If no one knows how I can to connect directly to my NextG internet account, then I am wondering about building a small WiFi device.

Since its only function would be to connect to the net, and I presume I could use one of those USB modems, how hard would it be to build a device?

I could use a small notebook while in the car, but since I dont need anything wlse but the net connection this would be expensive overkill,

So, still looking for ideas

No plans to do so

after some thought I realise I can take my BigPond Gateway with me in the car (or more likely buy another one and install it permanently) and thus I would have a travelling WiFi set up. But when walking around?

David - thinking about how he could get 25W of WiFi output to cover most areas where he visits/shops etc :-)
