At any time, I am a 45 minute drive from being out of cell service. Deep woods and mountains aren't exactly cell friendly. I have family in areas where cell phones are not in any way reliable.
For that matter, I know of one place in town where if you're driving through and you're on the phone, you lose service. About a 100 ft by 100 ft area. Tiny but dead.

Where are you people camping so far off the grid that you need one? Even if it is fairly remote, there aren't that many places with seriously dangerous animals or lack of cell coverage anymore.
