There have been many posts on boating forums re web access whilst afloat. Most of these entail using mobile phone networks and can be rather expensive and the phones have small screens.
I wandered into Maplins last week and saw a gismo called the PocketSurfer2 selling for £149-00 and free surfing for the first year and very cheap after. Going by the 'Bumf' on the website it would seem an ideal system but before I 'commit to buy' I'd like to know if anyone here has any experience of it.
