When you say "hot wallet" do you just mean one linked to the Internet? Online wallet? What are the limitations of an offline wallet?

By 'hot' i mean one connected to the network that can be used to send and receive.  'Cold' storage usually means setting up a key you can store things then printing out a paper wallet or something similar and not having the private key/wallet accessible by any means on your computer.
