Satellite footprint?

I live and work in the Western Pacific with the coordinates at 5 degrees north latitude and 156 degrees east longitude or between Guam on the western end and Hawaii in the eastern side.

Are there internet satellites that have the footprints in this area?

With a laptop do you have to order wirless high speed internet?

I was just wondering because if you didnt do that then the cord would be running from the laptop across the floor.My friend told me she has a laptop and she has wirless high speed.We use to have a laptop and thats when we had regular dial-up and I remember running the phone cord to the laptop from the wall so basically it was dragging across the floor and that sucked.Anyway does your laptop also have to be set up to have wirless internet because I’ve been reading about laptops with WiFi,so if your laptop doesnt have that,does thatmean it cant go on the internet wirless?Also what companies provide wireless internet.My dad told me we cant get dsl where we live.We do have highspeed but its not from dsl its from a satellite.But I am wondering if I can get dsl wireless where we live.Anyway any answers would be very much appreciative!

What the heck… laptop acts like it has stuck keys…?

I am posting for an issue with my husband’s laptop. He has a Toshiba Satellite Laptop and recently it started acting up. If he hasn’t used it in a while, it will start right up and works perfectly for an hour, sometimes more… then it starts acting up. Example: he will be using the internet just fine for a while then he will click on the address bar to go to a website and it will just start typing letters, a random pattern of I, O, and U. He will then turn off the computer and turn it back on and when it gets to the Toshiba screen it will just beep and not go any further. He has tried cleaning the keys and he popped those keys off to clean them, but it hasn’t helped. He said that it doesn’t look like they are stuck though. Any thoughts?

Is anyone interested in designing an internet density map?

This map, I am speculating, will be spatial and have all topics on the internet in clusters like the world lit up in the night and seen from a satellite. Where there is more activity there would be more light. This light could be related to the number of page hits, or backlinks, or bytes of data or a mixture of all. It could be a map of the world wide web, spatially so that people can get a sense of where the most activity is and try and see the diversity of topics as well. A lot of people could get involved in this project. (or has this already been done? : p I guess not. There is an internet traffic report for networks but this would be different.
Thanks, If so whats the link please? And just because its there doesn’t mean it can’t be done better. After Yahoo there was Google. At any rate its not popular, while like google earth, it should be
