Checking
e-mail and looking up information on the Web can be a hassle while traveling, as
I explained in my article on
Keeping in
Touch by E-mail. The simplest way to get on the Net is by visiting a
cybercafé or Internet point that rents computer access by the minute. In Venice, Venetian Navigator is
a convenient place to visit when you
need to go online.
To use Venetian Navigator's computers, you simply buy a 15-, 30-, 60-, 180-,
or 300-minute card. Rates are quite reasonable, and there's a discount for students with valid ID. Here's the good part: You're
charged only for the minutes you actually use, which means you can save unused
minutes for your next visit.
In addition to high-speed DSL access via its own computers, Venetian Navigator
offers laptop connections. You can also write documents, take pictures with
Venetian Navigator's digital cameras, edit photos and send electronic greeting
cards, copy your own digital camera's images to floppy disks or CD-ROMs, send or receive faxes, and print documents or
e-mail on a 600-dpi laser printer. International phone cards are also available.
