I don't bother to post while traveling, But I have a few friends who maintain
"medium speed" access (about 110 KBaud) using Sprint cell phone connections. I
don't know if that deal is still available, but $10 a month gives them unlimited
connect time.

WiFi can be used over limited areas - much of the FL Keys are "wired" for WiFi.
And most "hi-roller" marinas, especially resort oriented places, have phone
access in the slips. And most marinas have phone jacks in the office and allow
you plug in to check e-mail, etc.

Okay, I may be stupid (that is relative), but under the "Where be ye" post I
was under the impression, some sailors here are cruising and have no port.
Is it possible to read the posts and reply to sailing.asa while cruising. I
thought you had to be online to access news groups. If there is some new
technology, please educate me. If so I gotta get connected!
