Agreed and thus my comment:

From my experience, it is impossible to enjoy the finest boondocking spots in the west (the only area with which I have experience) AND expect fast (100Mb or more) and large quantities of Internet data at a price that I suspect most of us consider to be reasonable/possible. External antennae and amplifiers help a great deal but there are limits. Sitting around on a rainy day watching streaming movies all day is one of those routines/habits that will likely need to change. I suspect satellite data will be a viable reality before too awful long but it doesn't seem to be here yet (at an affordable price point (for either equipment and/or data)).
All that said, as someone that requires the Internet for my day job, I have been amazed at what is currently available at a very reasonable price. Some argue that the price is high. I think it is reasonable when it allows me to stay at and work from some amazing places.
Sitting at my computer looking out the window - one of the places I mentioned above.
