An easy question about Wi-Fi??

I'm not too familiar with all this...

Does Wi-Fi capable mean you can browse the net on your phone using my house's wi-fi hook up (i.e. without using broadband data usage and therefore much faster)?

Also, it is easy to hook up this phone so that I can use have internet on my laptop anywhere my phone gets service using Verizon's broadband connection? Do I have to have extra hardware or does the USB hookup work for this?

Thanks alot for any help before I buy this great looking phone!

Yes on the WIFI question. dont need data service and speeds will be better. Only downside is unless U hack the phone from my understanding you cant use wifi and phone at same time so you would miss calls.

As for data right now verizon doesnt support the 6700 as a modem. They might in the future ,but if they do it will be 44.99 for unlimited use on phone and 15.00 bucks for broadband connect..so its hella money.
