Our time in northern Indiana hasn’t all been consumed with bus projects – we did get out and play a little too. Elkhart While still at Elkhart Campground (our review), RVillage founder Curtis Coleman hosted an impromptu meet up at his coach – which was very well attended. We hardly had time to talk with […]
Help us make ‘The Mobile Internet Handbook’ 2nd Edition Awesome!
About this time last year, we decided it would be nifty to put all of our mobile internet related posts in one place – creating a central spot for all of this stuff that we get asked about so frequently.

The Choice: Verizon or AT&T’s 4G/LTE Networks?
One of our most frequently asked questions (right up there with “How old is that bus?” and “Oh, wow, is that a cat on a leash!?!”) is “Who has the best cell network?” As technomads who have been living and running our business on the road for 5+ years now, indeed, we have more first […]
Introducing Coverage? 2012 for iPhone & iPad
A bit over a year ago we released ‘Coverage?’ for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. In the time since, we’ve been thrilled with all the great feedback and reviews we have gotten. The app has sustained a 4+ star rating. This app really is genuinely useful, and there is nothing else like it out […]
