Using your computer and an Iridium satellite phone, you can connect to the Internet or a corporate network from virtually anywhere in the world, allowing you to browse the web, send and receive email and transfer files.
You can configure your computer for two different types of data calls, depending on your needs: Dial-Up Data or Direct Internet Data.
Now, Iridium Data Services can be run on a computer using the Windows XP Operating System as well as Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 4.0 and 2000.

The actual throughput will depend on the content being transferred and the protocol used. (Graphics and images will result in lower throughput.)
