NYCPHP Meetup

[Timothy Boyden]

Peter,

The T-Mobile service that Starbucks uses does not filter your internet
connection so you pretty much have full unfettered access to do what you
need to do. Speed is equivalent to a Cable Modem connection.

Recently while I was in California and Mexico, I was able to maintain our
Windows (RDP), Macintosh (SSH) and Sun servers (VNC over VPN), FTP photos to
my web site, VPN into work and mount Xinet FPO volumes and do some pre-press
work and more.

Frankly I'd be happy if could work from the road like that all the time. Too
bad nobody pays enough for web development to make that happen, not when
they can hire the local college kids at $10 - $15 bucks an hour instead.

Cheers,
