Ryan, I agree the more people communicating the better. I was just commenting on what my own, and suspect many others on the list's capabilities are. While I would love to have access to a satellite type of data service as a backup link its simply not in my budget and even if it was I suspect any service available via satellite might suffer from similar problems if the methods used to disrupt connectivity in Egypt were employed here.
