860881 2010-02-23 05:46:00 he might be able to use a cell phone to access the internet but it costs heaps. Maybe a usb data stick would be good. nedkelly (9059)

860886 2010-02-23 10:01:00 Would a T-Stick from Telecom work?

860887 2010-02-23 19:50:00 Satellite? You have to have the dish pointing in exactly the right spot. Boats move. That won't work.
I'd say cellphone is probably the only choice really.

860888 2010-02-23 19:58:00 there is a satellite dish for boats in which you lock on to the satellite and as you move the dish also moves to stay in connection with the satellite nedkelly (9059)
