If it works it's certainly a simple way to download and view weather fax HF broadcasts of you're out of Internet range.

Very very cool.. I've sold my iPad, but I'm definitely going to get a new one when the camera-enable version comes out...

I would like to see a sat phone interface brought to iPad. Certainly a custom 30 pin adapter could be made.

That would be totally cool!...Luis?
