Why don't you bring your iPhone here to Montana and drive around the state with me. How much coverage will it get? How much will you pay in roaming fees since AT&T has no coverage in Montana? Bring every smartphone from every wireless company and you still won't have sufficient coverage.
As we take a drive that's perfectly normal for Montana, we will pass through multiple broadcast markets. Do you want to spend the whole drive surfing the AM/FM dial? What about the places where there's no AM/FM? What will you do then?
Maybe we could mount a satellite dish on my car and find some way to keep it from blowing off the car and stay aimed at the satellite while driving at 80mph. Then we could crank up any Internet radio on my laptop, plugged into an inverter, plugged into my cigarette lighter....
Or, maybe we could just use my satellite radio.
