Since I normally never leave home without a computer, I have been contemplating how I can get my regular fix of comp.dcom.telecom while I am gone. I have the usual assortment of modular phone cords with alligator clips and gizmoes to replace the mouthpiece of a standard phone, but think that these are unlikely to work from the pay phones which are usually about the best you can find in a campground. I suppose that I could get a cellular phone, but I have not kept up with the modem technology for use with cellular's. Suggestions? J.
