It's sometimes useful to have that level of access. One of our bandmembers has been able to work shows only due to the fact that we could find him area internet access to continue his "real" job while in town for the gig. For any 'catters where this is a concern, there are also laptops with cell modems for heavy work. If you're really in the need, you can spring for the satellite modem apparently... instant net access anywhere on earth...M
