we live in a wired world, even if you can't see it.

There are few places without coverage now (spots in WV don't have coverage). Most Interstates and US highways do have coverage.

A few years ago when I was in the Bitterroot Mountains of Montana, I was able to get a signal, and stayed online for 8 hours while I caught up on email.
