As a resident of rural Australia I am priveledged to be able to represent the Open Source "Sahana" Humanitaran Aid application (www.sahana.lk/) at the upcoming "Disasters ~ Prevention and Mitigation" conference to be held at Harvard University, Massachusetts (www.hsph.harvard.edu/disasters/). One outcome of digital inclusion is that participation in and representation of global projects crossing international boundaries is possible - I find it truly remarkable.
Enabling global roaming for the trip I was also surprised to learn from my Telco (a week before travelling,) that CDMA wireless broadband notebook adaptors do not work in the USA. Apparently I will be limited to short-range WiFi hostpots or slow GSM for mobile connectivity. Are there other mobile broadband options in the USA I should investigate? If any other list members are attending the above conference it would be fantastic to catch-up.
