I frequently travel to developing countries (particularly in Africa/Middle East. I think what is more important than speed is reliability. Most countries have some sort of decent mobile internet service to some extent - it is just spotty and unreliable and usually a generation or two behind. You should think of this project as complementary to normal internet access - a last resort backup that reliable works at a low speed. Dial up should be fine - pages might take a while to load (especially those that are image heavy) but people shouldn't expect to be able to stream YouTube on a service like this.
