traveler's checks

Are traveler%26#39;s checks advisable in Kathmandu? I read one place that it was a good idea. Anyone have thoughts? Is it easy to get them exchanged?

Thanks for your help!

nah, we just got back from Kathmandu two weeks ago and we didn%26#39;t take any traveler%26#39;s checks, only cash. When you do exchange for rupees, make sure you get smaller bills than 1000%26#39;s. Also, bring your ATM card, because there are ATM cards everywhere. . .

Oops. . . I meant there are ATM machines everywhere. . . but you probably figured that.
