Or a satellite phone connected to a TRS-80 M100 laptop...

It's quite surprising that one may be pretty close to an urban center and still
have no net access, or 3G access (they would have to put up a bay station just
for you!).

Too bad those satellite phones are pricey to use, it's around 6 euros per
minute here, compared to a 0.03 euros per minute for a POTS line.
