I have wireless internet with Xplornet. It's not sattelite though, it's from a tower. Costs the same as Shaw High Speed, is a little slower but I have never had any down time whatsoever thus far that I remeber (about 1 year). So its slower than Shaw cable but WAY more reliable.

Not sure if that type of wireless would work in a city or on the go. I have a dish on my roof, but if you checked if there were any compaines offering this, they might have a portable setup.
