If you’re dreaming of summer fun, planning your vacation is as easy as going online.  From travel websites to trip reviews, websites like “HolidayIQ” and “TripAdvisor” can help you choose your best adventure and provide a reality check on what to expect.  Whether purchasing e-tickets or making hotel reservations online, the convenience of the Internet to coordinate plans is now a foregone conclusion for a growing number of Americans.  And, for those looking to take their broadband gadgets on-the-go, today’s smartphones can do everything from offer directions to recommend restaurants.  Consider these devices your virtual concierge.

For many of us, laptops are a must-have vacation accessory.  In fact, 1 in 5 Americans bring their computers when they go away.  From checking email to keeping up on news to posting pictures on Facebook, the desire to stay connected is increasingly prominent as broadband resources and opportunities abound.
