if you get your own imagery you can easily install a wms server on your

I don't think WMS can do offline. This is the weakness of web mapping
services, if I am not mistaken, it piggyback on TC/IP protocol (i.e
without Internet connection is the services useless).
Sure it can. It requires TCP/IP, but there always is localhost (127.0.0.1).
So you can run all those services locally without an internet connection.
I think that's what Giovanni meant (ie. install a WMS on the his local
machine).
There is an even much simpler solution, a cache that you install on your
own machine. I can't remember its name. But sure, it would be helpful
for people like Vincent and myself, people who go to work in places
where Internet is not even a dream.
I should try to implement it on my laptop.
A+
