West Indies connection

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

My friend has just dropped his laptop round here in the UK. Early the
day after tomorrow he sets out on a business trip to the West Indies
and he wants to have a dial up connection to the Internet to pick up
e-mails.

The question is what number(s) should I use for the dial up account?

Does anyone know of cheap ways to connect from any of the islands?
Will they all have different connection numbers?

Will it be just as cheap to dial the UK number (0845) like he does
already?

He may be able to get a hook up at the hotel where he stays.. he will have
to set it up when he is there..

Trying to set it up while in the UK is a total waste of time, and dialling a
UK 0845 number is completely out of the question..
