Mobile Internet - Datastorm F1 |
| 

| The
DataStorm F1, 0.74 metre mobile internet satellite system is the first true two-way
system approved by DirecWay and the FCC. Designed to automatically acquire the
internet satellite in the sky, the DataStorm F1 uses motors, gears, and a GPS
system to adapt to the mobile environment. It's unique fold-down design [10.5"
when stowed] lets most vehicles become a stable platform for installation. |

|
|
The
new D3 controller gives the DataStorm F1 true plug-and-play capabilities
with any computer or network. Currently compatible with the DirecWay platform,
other new and exciting options will soon be released that will allow for much
greater bandwidth options and speeds. Also see the article on Datastorm. |
