Various news sources recounted difficulties that emergency personnel had coordinating during hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Several articles mentioned the chaos that ensued because even cell phone towers were out of commission. (Imagine a place so primitive it lacks cell phones. A place like the United States of America in 1980.) Fortunately, I have a great idea. If there were a company that made satellite phones, emergency personnel could use those regardless of the state of land lines, cell towers....even...WiFi access points. Of course, Iridium would have to do deals with the government for homeland security. I'm just thinking out loud here.
