I imagine that many of the overloaded hotels accross the south have broadband access... the problem is that you need a laptop to access it.
I guess for the folks who can afford hotels it's not such a big issue, they could probably go to the local internet cafe (assuming they don't have laptops).
It will be interesting to see how it all works out, I'd be willing to bet that a large percentage of refugees could find housing in this manner if it was properly organized (which it won't be). I don't know if the big aid agencies just don't know about this potentially huge source of help or if they avoid it for liability or control reasons... but they don't even have links on their websites to these other sites. I browsed them all and they just ask for money, and more money, and money...
...and don't foget to send money.
