Seems to me, IMO, that after you have reached the, in or near storm environment, the need for internet data at that point has dramatically decreased, you are there.

Well maybe not quite that bad .

RaySat
TalkBack: Add your opinion
The product: RaySat announced at CES that later in 2005, it will begin shipping a two-way satellite link that will let a moving vehicle connect to the Net. Like the TracVision and Winegard products, the RaySat antenna is a 5-inch-high, pancake-shaped, hybrid phased-array unit that's small enough to fit on top of a van or SUV but not on a car.
The company expects that service agreements will offer download speeds up to 4MB per second, with a maximum of 128Kbps upstream. There is a half-second of latency (round-trip time) with satellite communication. That's not a blocker for Web browsing or media streaming, but it would affect online gaming or VoIP use.
Audiovox will resell this product. Future satellite units will be smaller and may even be built into car roofs.
The price: $3,495 for the hardware; installation and service fees extra.
That might be doable considering what I am paying for my wireless data service. Depends on the monthly service charge?

And if the thing is self-tracking and uses a WIFI interface, why would you need to pay someone for installation? [/b]
