I've been finding it harder and harder to travel anywhere without mobile broadband. It's particularly difficult when we travel to little towns that have no access. I dislike the "I've lost touch with the world!" feeling. I agree with Gary and you. I’ve been finding it harder and harder to travel anywhere without mobile broadband.
