I feel for ya! We've been having a lot of PC problems lately too. We went through about 5 in the space of a month
But these we're all cheap/freebies that were all well past their 'Best Before Date' I got along using my fella's PSP, not the easiest thing to use but better than a phone! Does anyone you know have one of these you could lend for a while? Although you would also need wireless. I finally plucked up the courage to order a brand new laptop on credit, I really wanted to avoid this but I just could'nt cope anymore! Good luck and I hope you can come back soon!
