Cisco's Emergency Response Network unit gave a presentation on their various options for remote/mobile connectivity. It starts with small suitcase, and goes to a large truck, and all give wireless internet, voice, video, and whatever you need. They've worked in most recent disasters, including 9.11, Katrina, and the Tsunami. Very impressive stuff, and a trememdous use of basically off-the-shelf hardware/software from Cisco. My favorite quote:
"It's not just about bandwidth, it's all about bandwidth."
Tomorrow, they're going to show some hydrogen fuel cells and the big truck. Can't wait!
