Promoting your Blog while on the road?

Hey everyone - quick question:

If you're trying to successfully manage a travel blog "business," do you find that you need a cell phone with Internet access to be able to easily promote through Twitter/FB/etc while traveling? If so, what phones do you use & what kind of data plans do you have?

I've tried researching this on other forums & topics, as well as talking directly with the major US phone carriers, but international data plans seem overly complicated & confusing. Any advice appreciated, please!

I use a Blackberry with a global data plan so that I can continue publishing daily from more remote locations. Warning though, it is incredibly hit and miss whether or not it gets service. Even in some very populated cities I have not been able to pick up a single but in the jungle of Guatemala it worked fine.
