The Holiday Inns have ethernet hookups for the Internet.

Um, I don't think you have anything to worry about. All the 
"hype" is about the fact that this hotel is so wired. They 
did a whole write-up on it in one of the local papers, can't 
remember which. I think it might have been the Chronicle. 
Anyway, there's a press release on the W hotels website too 
with more info. Here's the link -

Of course, being residents of the area, my buddies and I have 
been following this little piece of yuppiedom with interest. 
Of course, press releases are supposed to do this, but the 
hotel really does sound amazing. Maybe one of these days, I'll 
don my blue button down and khakis and head on over for an 
after-work cosmopolitan�

The Marriot in Santa Clara, right on Great America Parkway, next to Intel, has 
GREAT T-1 speed RJ-45 jack right in each room.  The work space is even better 
with the RJ-45 jack and power socket built into the, at least 3.5 ft wide desk 
with laptop on top.  Just my experiences.
