My #1 reason for purchasing the iPod Touch is the wi-fi Internet connectability.

Even though I have 3 computers in my home and a laptop that I take from room to room -- all connected with wi-fi networking and I'net -- I haven't been able to put my Touch down. I think it's awesome that I've got the I'net in the palm of my hand.

At any rate, I'm curious to know how others connect to wi-fi? I'm lucky that I have it in my home, but I'm afraid that when I take my Touch into the real world I'm going to be at a loss without my I'net (unless of course I'm at a Starbucks or Barnes & Nobel or I simply hijack a connection nearby). What other options do we have? (I'm not about to pay $800 to my cell phone company to convert my mobile phone into a portable modem.)

How do you all connect? 🙂
 
Im in the UK and i just go to the pubs that have free Wi Fi🙂
and of course do the naughty connect to someones elses Wi Fi, if i can find one!!!
 
its a good excuse to trawl the pubs looking for it though!🙂
Lucky one pub also does the best pizzas, so beer pizza and Wi Fi😀
 
Here in Belfast you find alot of smaller coffee chains offer free Wi-Fi in the city centre. Big places like Starbucks etc require subscription to T-Mobile i think.
