Internet Access in WDW

[hands]

Hi

I am on holiday from the UK on 14th Dec to 30th Dec, stopping at a villa, I have to logon to the Internet a couple of times for about three hours in the two weeks I am in Florida.
Is there an internet cafe that can be recommended in the surrounding area to WDW?
Any idea of the cost involved for three hours?
Can I use wireless in WDW parks? if so does anyone know which parks and how much that costs per hour?
Any advice would be welcome.

There is GPRS service in the Orlando area (and in the parks), so you could hook up your cell phone to your laptop to access the GPRS service. Costs are dependent on your service provider and their roaming policy.

There is WIFI at the resorts, info here http://www.wdwmagic.com/internetaccess.htm

I do hope that they expand their High Speed and WiFi efforts asap. We take lots of pictures and I really like to upload them to a service rather than just carry them on an easily-stolen laptop. Also, if work calls, I can at least do something rather than drive to the nearest Starbucks and miss half a day of WDW.

Agreed, WiFi in all resorts and in areas of the parks would be very useful. It would also be nice to see the $10 per day fee reduced, or included within resort benefits.
