Funny - but I think that's part of the charm of the Star Wars settings.
Even with the futuristic technology, things still move at the speed of
communication, and with the Empire controlling the 'holonet' the Rebels
are forced to do things like 'hide the data tapes in an astromech and
send it to find an old general who's in hiding.' :-)
