And you have no printer with you, of course. The traditional work-around has been to fax a document to yourself at the hotel, but then all you get is a fax-quality document that may not be good enough. Now, you may have a better alternative. PrintMe Networks, a new service for mobile professionals, aims to simplify printing away from the office...<br /><br />...Once you've set up a PrintMe account, you can print a document from a laptop, personal digital assistant, Wireless Application Protocol device, or cellular phone via browser, e-mail, or even just a phone call, for about $1 per page. You can even print directly from the PrintMe control box connected to the printer. You can print e-mail, including most attachments, Web pages, pictures, or specific documents you've uploaded to PrintMe. No special software or print drivers are required. From the Web site, you can search for available PrintMe printers by city, state, zip code, country, or identification number. And if nothing else is available, PrintMe can still print to a fax machine."
