Guys, really, that is an awesome idea, especially when it comes to several countries in the world that limit the access to data. This data doesn't necessarily require multimedia, sometimes its all about access to basic information like dates for demonstrations, or other political topics and things like that. This could be really hand for hundreds of thousands of people who are just not informed and kept silent by their governments. Think about that when implementing. There is a not-so-small audience out there.
Do not get discouraged by all those people who are telling you that its too expensive. Those guys are sitting in behind a high-speed access and don't seem to look beyond the horizon, that sometimes its not about getting 2GB across with SMS (really? ... I mean... REALLY?!), its about getting basic access to information. Not every country is as awesome as the US or Europe in this world. Not everyone is free. And not everyone uses the internet the way we seem to got used to it.
Keep up the great work, its an awesome idea. For sailors, for people without access to internet, for quite a bit of an audience we like so much to forget. Keeping it open and turning down VC firms is even better.
GREAT JOB!

Combined with twitter, it can be really powerful for broadcasts.
