Many of the computers are coming with wireless nowadays. I would just make sure that you get the mainstream 802.11b/g card, b at a minimum. Not many people use 802.11a because of the cost.
If you're just strictly looking for basic home usage and not gaming, etc., I would probably say just look at some lower-end IBM or Dell notebooks. The IBM Thinkpads are extremely good laptops, as are the Dells.
Depending on the amount of pictures you plan to store on your laptop, your harddrive size will have to vary accordingly. If possible, get a 7200rpm laptop harddrive so it will speed up your computer usage.
