Question
Hi. I work out of my home, so I pretty much travel on vacations when I want. But, when I want to be away and still get work done I'm looking for a wireless fax and printer solution. Do you know of any compact, portable fax machines/printers?

Answer
I do not know of any such accessory -- sounds like a great idea.  Search the internet and see what you find ... and then please let me know the details because I would consider buying such an item (in fact today I was in Atlanta and thought about a portable printer !!!).  You know, that in the latest Windows (XP etc) there is a "fax" function allowing you to do exactly that ... check it out as it might be all you need to have.  What I have done sometimes regarding printing -- is that I email the hotel front desk and ask them to print it out !!!  sometimes they charge (minimal) and most times not.  Hope this assists.

I have travelled on business to 37 countries in the past 4 years -- visiting 4 or 5 major cities in one 7-day trip ! All this out of Chicago (my home base). I can assist with itinerary planning, suggestions what to pack, how to get to locations, and can answer general questions about what to do during non-work time, and how to survive "on your own" on the road. I have a few "tips" on how to make a 7 to 10 hour plane ride more comfortable, less jet-lagged and what to take on board to assist.
