Thread: Remote communication

Hi,

I'm looking at ways of accessing the internet and sending photos and written articles via email from the middle of nowhere.

I've looked at Satellite phones and BGAN Satellite devices. I could probably swing the price for a unit, but the associated service plans (especially if you want to send photo's) are super pricey. We're talking around $5 USD per Megabyte of data.

Is it simply a matter of "you've gotta pay to play" or are there cheaper ways of achieving what I'm trying to do?

Cheers,
AJ
