[kwlug-disc] Mobile internet 'sticks'

[unsolicited]

As of the last time I looked, about a year ago, no public (or private) 
wi-fi in Wiarton. And no internet cafe. Sauble, yes (2 - free), 
Wiarton, no. And neither's library.

If you're really only going to use it at your in-laws, as opposed to 
out and about, you'd probably spend less buying them a (wi-fi) router. 
(Assuming they have internet.) Outside downtown Wiarton and Sauble, 
cell coverage is spotty - non-existent unless on the main highway.
