WiFi Rules!

After very long wait, my parents finally gave up and installed whole enchilada of cable services: digital HD TV, digital phone, and fast internet.

HD TV has less channels in Poland than it has in the USA, but even those that are available look very impressive (as usual). Landline operators are much worse in Poland (nickel-and-dimeing customers everywhere), so virtually any level of digital phone service is better than a landline. Cable company would not be cable company without some false advertising: advertised 'wireless internet in every room' requires you to purchase and configure the router - thanks goodness I had no problem with finding the router (pretty decent NetGear model) and configuring it.
