> My DH and I will be going on a Windstar cruise out of St. Maarten second week of January. (Yippee!). The ship offers two WIFI packages 75MB/$50 and 160Mb/$100. My DH is something of a news addict who would miss his daily dose of NYT browsing. That and (maybe) email is the only thing we'd need.

> Does anyone have experience with cruise ship WIFI? I'm not sure how the MBs would add up. Unfortunately we get a lot of unnecessary email every day which we can't filter out for this week trip. (Maybe 70 a day.) I guess we could shut off email entirely and just use our bytes for news surfing.
I just today downloaded the latest edition of MacWorld magazine for my iPad, over Wifi. 216 MB.
Quickly looking at the size of a mailbox and dividing by the number of messages in it gives me an average (for that forum) of 7.4 kB per message.
