Chris,
My top speed was 16.8 kbps here in
the bush and Telstra called to offer us the Gov't subsidised Satellite Broadband
at $196 instead of the normal $3000.
It works great. You should try for
it as it is aimed to help us bushies get Broadband as well as the city
folk.

Sobbing !!!!!!!!!!!!
I have 28.8 to 31.2 kbps here.
Wish we had the Nats here in SA.
Oh well, I can always go to the library in the
township if I need the speed.

Hi
all,
Little off subject but have you seen Google Earth, absolutely amazing
access to satellite images world wide. the site offers continuous coverage
of the whole globe via the browsing software (free download) resolution
varies from area to area but you can make out individual people on the
highest resolution! shows Long and Lat of where you are viewing,
measuring tools etc. so could be used for task setting
etc!
Access is free unless you want their commercial version.
WARNING however - this is addictive and likely to burn up hours in
front of your screen!!!
Cheers,
John Parncutt
