POP for an ISP is a Point Of Presence

"POP account" is a bit misleading too ;)

Maybe AOL can help?

You don't want a POP account as that is a protocol to get your email, not a
dialup.  There are several global dialup ISPs, but don't forget to look for
hotels that have internet access in the rooms via ethernet or wireless.

Dear all

I was wonder if any one could give me some advice.

User at my company will be travelling around the world, and need to connect
back to our office via the internet. What I would like to know is there any
ISP out there that has POP accounts around the world that I can use to dial
into. I have contacted World Com and they want to charge me £2.50 per hour
to connect plus all the other charges.

Any advice would be most welcome.

thanks

Jonathan
