The end result was damage to the cornner of the battery which does not make me happy, however i know it is my own fault. The good new is all that needs to be done is change the battery.

I am however doing via cell phone. The new generation cards however promise to be faster. There is a new Kyocera KR1 router as well as a DLINK di-725 that you can take a sierra card and plug it into the router and broadcast wifi. I may give that a try.

I dont have any reflection problems or anything like that. But, I am advising Nat to get the matt screen for her since the glossy screen smudges easier. No problem so far.
