There is a new computer form-factor called netbook. Usually about 2-3 Lb's with a 9-10" display and come with built-in WiFi--perfect for the traveler. Look at the Dell Inspiron9 Mini or Asus Eee PC1000h for examples. List prices from $350 with Linux installed to $550 with a version of Windows.

In the early 90s when I used to go through Hong Kong airport (when it was still in British hands) they always made me take the batteries out of every thing that used a battery.

There are 3 public computers for use. They aren't secure because they are public machines so don't do your banking on them.

They use either a cable or DSL connection but it is done wirelessly so that slows things down a bit on a connection that isn't that great to begin with because of the CR telecom industry.

Enjoy.
