This piece aptly point out how the world is changing based on its embrace of internet access and all that implies on small mobile devices. Broadband access via Verizon's EVDO Rev. A service while traveling in our RV has been really good and getting better since 20o6.

However, I use a laptop for access. What I really want is a handheld device that will allow me to access Gmail and a host of other Google apps while traveling at Interstate speeds, if need be.

I know this will come, but right now I have not found the solution I want. Perhaps a new generation of devices and Verizon's deployment of 4G LTE using its newly acquired 700 MHz spectrum is what I must wait for. Four years seems an eternity!
