And Who Might You Be?

Being in tech support I get a bunch of phone calls. No really? Yes, really. But I can't always be by the phone or pick up on every call. So I get a bunch of voice mails.
This one came in late one evening last month. I didn't really recognize the voice, but that didn't matter. He said he would call me tomorrow.

Actual voice mail transcript:

Yeah, Hey! It's me...
I know we hadn't talked in a while... Uh, I don't have one of those...
I'm gonna talk to you tomorrow, I want you to tell me which one to buy.
I tried and I lost part of it and uh, I need to get one of those things when I'm in a motel I can get hooked up. OK?
I'm a, uh, I get my emails and everything but I leave my computer at home because it's so big and heavy and clumsy and I never got setup with that whata-ya-callit stuff when you use through the air whata-ya-callit non hookup or something.
I'll talk to you tomorrow. You tell me what to buy.
I tried buying one and setting it up. I never could get it down or setup right.
So, uh, I'm coming to town next week. OK? Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and uh, I'd appreciate it if maybe you could spend a little time and get me hooked up with this thing. OK?
I do a good bit, but I just don't carry it with me cause I don't feel like digging in all the telephone lines trying to get everything hooked up with the lines, OK?
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
