DATA RATE!!!??? I sit in front of 3 tubes all day long solving computer
problems. When I get down island the LAST thing I want to worry about
is data rates. :-) Actually I have never tried the comm adaptor. I
just call in to check the phone mail and then offer advice between sips
of pain killer. :-)

=================================

What kind of data rate do you get with Iridium? Do you dial up an
internet connection or do they have a data/IP mode?
