That's friggin sweet, but how much did they get you on it? I got the 5100 model about a year and a half ago for work and it rounded at about 2,050, 600 of that was warranty shit.
Couple thoughts:
If you didn't get the screen/accident protection do it. Trust me it's worth it. I think they only cover the screen for like 90 days or some BS like that.
The sound card SUX ass, shit ton of line noise and never seems to connect quite right. I'm thinking about getting one of those Echo Indigo PCMCIA cards.
Be on the lookout for Kindos and Starbucks for free internet!
warranty i got was 300$ for the completecare one for 3 years.. so if i drop it it under warranty. About the soundcard ill deal with the one it it for now. Ill probably get a new one soon tho, ill look around for a firewire one.
Starbuck is not really free internet... you have a day for free with the tmobile thing...but you need to pay after.

That's bunk, it should all be free. $5 bucks for a cup of coffee and they can't give you free internet, wtf?
Anyway, if you get really bored, you can war drive(ie drive around the city till you find active/open hot spots) and if they don't have a key you're generally good to go. You'd be surprised how many of these you find in bigger cities.
