That's generally what people do, get a wireless router. Actual wireless internet through like cellphone towers and stuff currently just isn't up to par with landlines, they're really slow, and it's expensive. Basically the wireless internet you see at Starbucks and people's houses are all Wi-Fi, either 802.11a/b/or g. Which means it's just a wireless router connected to a broadband modem to provide the surrounding area with internet. But of course if you did get a wireless router, you'd need a wireless card in your comp.
