It's 'wonderful' having a laptop or mobile phone when those things have nothing to connect to.
Spend a bit of time in places where your phone says 'no coverage' and you'll understand just what a great paper-weight it can be. <grin>

- testis321 7y agoNah, usually it works, just the calls don't get through. Even after the Boston bombing, the people there couldnt get/take calls, because the network was flooded with other people calling. Mobile networks survive most of the "shits hitting the fans", but usually the sheer amount of calls to/from that area makes them useless for emergency communication (unless you get a dedicated channel... or have "QoS" set up very very well)
