Default Mobile Operators Set Sights on Last Frontier

http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=technologyNews&storyid=2006-02-17T175038Z_01_L17705467_RTRUKOC_0_US-TELECOMS-MOBILE-FRONTIERS.xml

"Anyone who considers travel to remote parts of the globe or in a plane as a refuge from mobile phone calls should enjoy it while it lasts, because areas until now out of reach are set to get connected. A new generation of mobile networks is being built out of boxes no bigger than a microwave oven that are extending the reach of traditional networks of base stations, satellites and masts to places not worth the attention of big operators."

There really might soon be nowhere to hide. In addition to airplanes and cruise ships where else do you think these new boxes can be used?
