The unstoppable march of mobile phone technology

[jeffkinn]

We all want the best mobile signal we can get but we don't want to see or be near mobile phone masts. It's a real first world problem but those in the third world or remote parts of the planet would love to have a phone signal for voice and texts. Could mini satellites be the answer? Some people think so? Any thoughts from anyone?

Suprisingly it is a First World problem.

11 years ago I was in Jaipur, India. Looked out of the 4th Floor of the Hotel Room Window. I counted over 25 towers.

I never had any issues with the Signal, always 75% or more.
