Or would it still be erratic trying to decide which cell site to connect to? Personally, I think the main use would be for on the ground weather/filing etc., and in the air would be close to your destination, probably staying within range of a local cell site and making pick-up arrangements/cab etc. Will just have to remember to do that while in Canada.
