[Techtalk] dialup while traveling

We're going on a 10 day trip with our two laptops and would like to be
able to dial-up the net periodically while we're gone. Most of the
places we're staying is with family, and my ideal would be to find a
1800 dial-up pool we can access at some reasonable rate. 

Our current DSL provider also supports roaming dial-up with a handful
of POPs: Roaming Charges: $2.40 per hour/$0.04 cents per
minute. However, we're traveling constantly, so we'd have to create a
configuration almost every night. 

I may just look at billing the long distance and calling our local
dialup, just to stay sane.

However, if anyone has experience with a good nationwide (particularly
in the southeast) service that is reasonable for (very) infrequent
use, I'd love to hear about it.
