It seems like there is this belief that if you don’t have a cell phone or other mobile device, you must have no need for it. Well, maybe that is because you have no need for it; that you don’t need to be constantly connected to the world to be able to engage in activities that are necessary for living.
But I think that cell phone usage is an important social and cultural activity. That’s why I have a phone in my car when I’m driving around town. I can read my Facebook status while I’m on the way to the grocery store. I don’t have to be constantly on the phone. I do have to be in touch with others, however, and that’s one of the reasons that I had to go to Mexico to find a cell phone.
Its not just the cell phone that keeps us connected. I have a cell phone that I can use while working out, which keeps me connected to the world. And when I’m not working out I’m checking Facebook. Its not like I’m disconnected from everything and everyone. It just makes sense that I should get a cell phone. It makes so much sense that I should buy a new one.
In my part of the world, in Mexico, the cell phone is often one of the only ways you can be able to connect to the outside world. Sure, you can use an online service like Vodaphone, get a landline, or even a satellite phone, but there are very few places where you can really talk to others. It’s not like you can text someone, or call someone, or send a message and have it get through.
Sure, they might have a little bit of a lag or something, but that is to be expected.
The funny thing about Mexico is that people are really used to this. People expect to be able to call friends and family, or even send messages. If you do that, you’re going to get a response. That’s not as much of a problem in the US, where most people have cell phones and the internet at their fingertips, but in Mexico the biggest problem is that there are a lot of people who don’t know how to use them.
Thats why it is a big mistake to travel to Mexico. If you travel there, you will likely be able to get free wi-fi, but you will have to pay for the internet. Then things get even worse when you get to the airport. The internet there is usually free, but it doesnt work when it gets to the airport.

Once an airport terminal, the WiFi access is very limited, and often requires a very specific type of device (e.g. a cell phone that has a WiFi dongle). You’ll need to know this and make sure that you have more than one device with you.
What you’ll also need is a WiFi adapter for your laptop, because the airport terminals are notorious for not being able to provide a good WiFi signal. If you’ve got access to a hotel or something that you might stay at during your visit, I would highly recommend it. The internet access in the airport terminals can be sporadic and often unreliable as well.
