celluar phones work on radio signals...presumably the still do in 2050+...
i would not think that a cellphone would be capable of handeling all that
information. Think of this: you have lets say packets of 10Mp flying from the
deck (don't quote figures to me here i'm just using it as an example) to the
matrix per ns. now lets say you are using a cell phone...there is more than
likely no error correction on this type of correction so one little 'pop' of
static and the connection becomes drek...kinda like when my roomie picks up the
phone when i'm on line...only worse...you loose carrier more than you think and
no transfers will be seamless even if stationary.,..you'd have to park
yourself next to the receiver....
