Unless you are really rich, which I guess you are since you can afford a Winibago {:-), then you will probably want a free webmail address like hotmail, (yahoo, etc), which you just access from internet cafes along the way. If one of the kids/family has one of those 10 email addresses per account offers, some of these also offer web mail. e.g. my Swiftel adsl account offers 5 email addresses with webmail access. This might be better than a hotmail account. Now, it you are rich, satellite phone connection back to a dial up ISP is obviously the only way to go. {:-), but that would cost as much as the winibago again. -- Terry Collins {:-)}}} email: terryc at woa.com.au www: http://www.woa.com.au Wombat Outdoor Adventures <Bicycles, Computers, GIS, Printing, Publishing> "People without trees are like fish without clean water" -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
