…is a pain. Most hotels “kind of” have broadband Internet access, where broadband is defined as an Ethernet cable or wireless. Usually it’s ridiculously expensive, like $5 per hour or $20 for 24 hours. It bears no relation to actual cost. It makes dining from the minibar look cheap ;-)

I was just browsing for a hotel in Sydney (training course next week), and spotted this:

Broadband available (additional charges apply, PC must have PCI slot)

I know not what to say.
