looks like a great solution... so its 100$ then either 13 for the ipod adaptor or 5 for the stright usb adaptor so you could use the dock with it... either way this should work well... great idea... you get service out on the boat much?

Cellular towers basicly work the same as television (Minus the outrageous wattage behind the transmitter) far as signal wise.. Line of sight. Since there isnt any terrain to interfere with the signal should carry pretty far over water.
