Ah, "mesh networks" - as used by Zigbee amongst others.

I can see some mileage in this for extending the range of mobile networks in remote areas. Coverage out in the hills is very patchy and this could be a very useful in emergencies. However, I imagine that it would be even more unreliable than an ordinary signal.
