Sounds like a jet when turning on and after a couple of minutes after running microsoft word. I can tell you how and why it overheats as well. The fan to suck in air is small, and is located right under the laptop. This is ok, but a fan to suck in air is not reliable as a fan that sucks OUT hot air. As a Tech, this is a major design flaw. I overlooked that aspect when I bought my HP laptop last year. Just so happened to mess up right after my warranty expired. I suggest the Sony one, I would take a messed up battery over a flawed motherboard design any day. Atleast then it would be cheaper to replace later, and free with warranty.

AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon offer wireless. Even Cricket. Not sure about the other companies though. They will charge you a monthly rate though. AT&T might actually have a better deal since they do internet at home now and might be able to give you a discount. You can purchase a card for you laptop from a wireless provider.

Prices usually range from $30-60/mo. They plugin to a USB slot or a PCMCIA. With this option, you don't need built-in wifi as the 3G card is your wifi adapter at that point.
