Keep your usage in mind too!
If you've got a "central" working point, you might want the external port adapter, or in a deluxe version, a dockstation. The first is sometimes included, and the latter is always expensive.
You might want to pick up an extra power adapter, so that you can leave one plugged in, instead of reaching down and unplugging it, everytime you go on the road.
If you need a printer (most people don't), HP makes a model 340 inkjet which is ideal. You can also connect to *some* HP laser printers, via the infrared link, if you're equipped that way.
If you plan to get on-line, you might want to pack a network cable, and/or a phone cord. A printer cable can come in handy too, but some printers have the new Centronics slim connector.
As for keyboard and mouse... you can get a trackball that substitutes as a mouse, and latches on to your laptop, if you can't stand what your laptop has. Some laptops require an adapter, to connect an external keyboard and mouse at the same time.
