All along, Cozumel was our choice. We just really got excited about DR after hearing so much. I still hope I can make Punta work out, but it doesn't look good.

As long as you find a hotel that has wifi access you should be fine. I know you have an iPhone so with the skype app you can make calls over wifi. Hotel rooms all have phones as well, but they will be pricey for international calls.

As for Cancun vs Cozumel, you can dive Cozumel from Cancun so unless there was a specific dive you wanted to do, it's not thaat much better. Are you a certified diver? I've been to Cancun too many times to count, so I can better recommendations there, but Cozumel is gorgeous as well.
