Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"As someone who doesn't reside in the USA, I was wondering what would be the best way to get internet for my computer in the US for a couple of weeks? If it were Europe I know I'd look for some prepaid data. Is there anything similar offered by American carriers? A MiFi or a data SIM that I can tether from would work, but I'm trying to maintain a tight budget. Help!"
Has anyone actually got Sony to repair said fault, I have had nothing but audacity from them and they have not agreed to fix the exact fault and are returning the laptop untouched. They have not even provided a fault diagnosis and just say the motherboard is at fault. I have provided detailed information, including the generation of a bootable Linux CD from which which debug can be generated, showing the motherboard works just fine. As Sony engineers cannot recreate this information (as the only use Windows), they say that the mainboard is at fault. Eh? Just because the issue results in a blank screen, they think the machine won't boot, their so-called engineers are either stupid or just not interested in fixing the inherent problem the machine was shipped with. Sony customers deserver better than this, their only offer was to replace the mainboard at a cost of £750. Why do I want that as the mainboard works just fine, it has the nVidia GPU fault, nothing else.
