According to a friend who's serving in the cavalry right now, you can
occasionally get time on terminal-like devices that run a web browser. (YMMV
if you're not in the cavalry, of course.) Bandwidth and latency are
horrible, or were horrible for him because he was getting connectivity via
satellite. He was frustrated with the whole process and interface, and only
used it to send out short notes to family members. Maybe they've improved
the process by now, but I doubt it since it's been months since I've heard
from him.
