Retractable CAT5 Cable
 

Does anyone know of a good Retractable CAT5 Cable to use with a laptop? To use in hotel rooms etc etc.

What would you recommend in buying and how many feet would buy?

I personally cary an airport for hotels (works also for dialup), but I'd love to get a retractable CAT5 too :)

I looked at retractables, but when I wrap up a 25 foot cable it's not any bigger than a retractable with it's case and all. Plus the 25 foot one I carry fits easily into my laptop carry bag.

I've never needed the entire 25 feet, but then I've been known to completely rearrange a motel room so that I have a desk in view of the tv and my laptop screen is not in view of anyone else in the room.

Are you saying you travel in pairs? :groucho

Can't you pick up a ton of those retractable cables at internext anyway, never actually tested one out so I cant say how well they work.

usually when I go on vacation.. my boys are with me.
