1)

Has a reliable, 4mbit wireless connection. However, if you are going there I recommend telling the owner that internet is important to you, so then he can put you in an apartment where you will get the strongest signal (usually 3rd floor).
As for great hotels? Typically resort-style hotels won't offer decent internet in their rooms. Since they don't cater to business travellers. And there isn't much business travel in Samui.
2) You need a special CDMA aircard, which you can buy from CAT internet in Nathon, on Samui.
However, as far as I know, Samui does not get EV-DO speeds, you will only get a 150k/s connection using CDMA on Samui.
