How does the system access the internet in remote areas? Any satellite is really expensive. GPRS/GSM is a great technology. Here in Zimbabwe I was in a tiny village 125 km from Harare in the middle of nowhere and I picked up very useable GPRS on the econet.net/ econet.co.zw mobile phone network. I was (pleasantly) astounded. So Scott - my advice is to build in GSM/GPRS technology to your product and/or make it a favorite add-on. Well done Sir! Keep up the Good Work..
