Every tool has its positive and negative attributes along with optimum uses. I've always used both cellular and Wi-Fi but for different reasons and in different situations. All I'm trying to do with this podcast, and probably the next, is clear up a bit of misinformation that, because it seems to get repeated over and over, and often in the form of misguided advice, might keep drivers from taking advantage of <strong><em>all</em></strong> the tools they have available to them. Once an individual knows the facts it makes it a whole lot easier to come to valid conclusions about the types of technology they can use and the circumstances in which their use can be most efficient and effective.

If I'm at a dock, I'm not going to have wifi. If I'm at a truckstop in a small town, cellular will be the slow kind. In a major city, nowadays, it might be a toss up with Verizon's new network they're putting in.
