Sloooow process of posting since I am through a GSM-data 9.6 Kpbs connection. Slow, but it works everywhere (it had to have some advantage no?). I keep going online once a day just to check email... still wondering how "normal" that is. I mean, if you're on vacation, and you get a letter, you read it, right? and many times you send postcards. So why are we trained to think that this is different? Maybe that's just my preconception... the hotel here has a public internet terminal and people use it quite often.
