most laptops come with integrated wireless or have the option. and even if it doesnt you can still buy a wireless card to plug into your laptop. i have the latter. so wireless shouldn't even be an issue. the only bad thing about the second option is that you'll have to buy a wireless card, and my G card cost around $50 on ebay.
i said above that i prefer a powerful processor.
i have a 2.2 ghz pentium p4 and the battery life is about 2 hours, but i always carry the power plug with me when im at school.
if you want to game just make sure you have
a good video card. i have an integrated card in my laptop because i didnt know any better when i bought the thing over a year ago.
i had problems playing sim city 4 until i upgraded my ram and it played alot smoother.
but i still have problems playing games like the Sims2 when there's too much going on. it'll get extremely choppy. also when i play Call of Duty, when there's alot going on it'll take me like 2 minutes to move 3 steps.
so i'm gonna stress
powerful processor, ram, and video card are a must.
screw the battery life because its easy to carry the plug around.
plus its not like you'll be heavy gaming when you're not around a power source.
if you take a road trip, just buy a power converter to make charging in your car possible.
