I swore off WIFI hunting after visiting the Greek island of Corfu, and from jiwire.com it looks like there is still nothing there. Check this out though: http://www.geofone.net/bgan-sale.htm These are lightweight, plenty fast, USB, Bluetooth, ethernet, and the page even mentions Linux. $20/day and $7.95/MB doesn't sound so bad. How can I figure out how much data I send/receive right now during minimal operation? Don't know how long you intend staying connected each day, or how much data you need to up/download, but $20 a day doesn't exactly hit me as a deal . . . That's well more than what I would expect to have to pay a month, even when I am on international roaming charges away from home. From what I can tell, there just isn't a good solution for staying connected while traveling around the world yet. I think a lightweight, fast satellite connection like the ones in that link would be perfect, but they are a bit expensive. Not as expensive as the last time I looked though. That's right, they are along with satellite cell phones slowly reducing in price. Connecting via GSM sounds like a cheaper solution but I wonder how it would end up after phone rental charges, There may be no need to rent, unless you're off to Costa Rica. A lot of PAYG deals throw in a phone for free over here. SIM cards, SIM cards are usually free (again I am only speaking for the UK market - YMMV), or cost no more than $20 and you get some free calls for that. international voice charges, OK, this can be a sting in the tail, some providers were charging too much for roaming abroad. The telecoms regulator has brought this under control lately by capping the charges. When I roam around Europe I can still ring my ISP's UK dialup number for a reasonable cost. however they charge you for local data, local dial-up charges, getting ripped by the fine print because you're likely dealing with a different company every time, gas and time spent looking for a good signal and power outlet, etc. I know what you're saying, but WiFi coverage is increasing, even in rural areas. OK, Corfu may still be an exception although the Starbux monopoly is spreading its wings across the globe. Sometimes the local council may compete for WiFi provision. I saw tens of kids with laptops hanging around and browsing obsessively in a central square in Athens, Greece, a couple of months ago. I was told that this is a free WiFi hotspot offered by the Mayor to promote new technologies. You could also find that a lot of hotel lobbies (my favourite option) offer peace quite, a drink and a few hours of uninterrupted Internet usage. Some of the hotels may charge for WiFi usage, but many more do not. With a satellite connection it's straightforward. You always deal with the same company and it works right from your hacienda on the beach. In my experience, staying connected on the road is really hard.

I remember seeing a comparison between different Internet access media and the satellite Internet access did not exactly come on top.

Haws Jonathan.Haws at sdl.usu.edu writes: Hello, I am looking for a software API that I can use to develop a UI that will display an analog video stream on the screen with overlaid controls (buttons, indicators, etc.). Maybe these are a good place to look at developing software for gentoo: [1][2] The latency for the video display must be less than 1/4 second to meet the design requirements, so something that can be programmed in separate threads (a video thread and an overlay thread) may be the best option. You'll need to find or develop a 'low latency' method to collect the video (frames). I'm not so sure how experienced you are with video, so some of this advice may not be relevant for you: 1. Look at the existing projects for frame grabbers and the device drivers for the hardware portion of the related software: bttv/xawtv/camE has been around for ever and the driver code has been fundamentally changed over time. Here is a more current listing: [3] Looking at some of the oldest driver code will show you have the 'bt848' chips works. The bt848 chips have been replaced by new chips (878) and others. Reading the data sheets on the chips will tell you quite a lot about what is possible (This all assumes you are going to use a 'cots' video capture hardware system that plugs into the pci slot of a (gentoo) computer. If you are custom designing hardwareware (fpga, dsp, analog circuits) then it may not be useful. 2. Find the relevant devise drivers for other chipsets used in video capture, in the latest linux kernels for good places to look at what has already been coded. This is a very dynamic area for device drivers (over the last few years) so the driver code for a given video chipset and easily have changed of the coarse of that time. 3. Look at ffmpeg and the developers therein, as you might be able to learn quite a lot from previously (failed) projects and new efforts. 3. Keep you gui tools simple and lightweight. There are many graphical toolkits you can use to create your graphics (UI). This is a huge, separate effort. You may decide to use existing code for all of the low level code and then just spin your own (UI) on top of a striped down version of ffmpeg. My choice, QT4. 4. Read the sources to a lot of projects and talk to the folks at these projects, before you start off 'half-baked'.(caveat emptor)! On gentoo here is a great place to begin your search: cd //usr/portage/media-video Other keywords camstream Ogg OGM matroska 5. If you are looking into low latency video, for machine control types of projects, then look into some 'image processing' areas such as robotics for ideas in published 'white paper' and from the standard journal publications. ACM, IEEE and the various research area related to (computer) vision. This is a very active, complex area you have chosen to work in. READ (research) quite a lot and then narrow your focus on something that is realistically achievable. Drop me some private email, if you like.
