Mobile Satellite Dish ?


Okay, clearly it's not moving mobile, I guess the correct term would be Stationary Mobile Satellite...

The dish mounts to a roof of a minivan and uses a GPS to locate satellite and voila... internet and TV anywhere... Try doing that with Cable!!!

Ahh.... That is so cool. Sort of like those TV vans drive around with satellites on their roof?

I worked for a wireless ISP in the states and when we where done you could drive aorund Boston at 60 mile an hour and surf that web at 3 mbps both ways. Wireless not satellite even.

Bob: Speeding down the information ramp is cool in the city or where cell towers exist, but try this one in the bush off the beaten trail....
