It finds him wireless Internet networks in the vicinity so he can surf the Web and get his latest messages. It even pinpoints his precise location using global positioning satellites so it can feed him driving directions.

With the notebooks we looked at in this comparison, no expense was spared. And while that would have meant ridiculous price tags even only a few years ago, you can now get real mobile performers at prices that are (almost) down to earth.

Until now, wireless local area networks have been just another grass roots, hobbyist technology--the purview of home-networking enthusiasts and risk-taking IT managers.
