It has been a busy month, I've noticed a few of the posts have got corrupt images. It has been extremely hard to fix these as the source files are no good. If you posted an image and it is now corrupt can you please re-upload it. I will endeavor to fix the others as i come across them.

On a brighter note, the CC Communications embroided King-Gee shirts are back in. Let me know if you would like one ($30....you can't even buy a king-gee shirt that cheap!)

I've also been working on the automated water sentry, should get some more testing done this week, you can view the latest images and videos HERE

The thought crossed my mind that i should change the portal to cc comms over to a blog type format. The idea was to utilise wordpress and then have the forum in the background of the blog. There is a poll above, would love your thoughts. Peace

I've decided to keep a rolling forum topic on the rollout of the National broadband network. As most of you are aware, K Rudd decided we were well behind the times with regards to broadband and communications within Australia. So this is our attempt at keeping you in the loop with its progress.

In today’s technology driven world, a lot of our devices support Wi-Fi. While most of our homes have Wi-Fi these days, stepping outside is a whole other world.

Laptops, netbooks and most recently iPads are all devices that would benefit from being always connected. The good news is there are options available to make that happen. Not a new market, but one that’s certainly emerging is the portable Wi-Fi hotspots. Very few phones on the market today have hotspot functionality so other options are needed until this becomes the norm.

The pocket sized Virgin Mobile Wi-Fi Modem is one such solution. Containing a sim card that connects to the Virgin / Optus 3G network, the device emits a short range (up to 15m) Wi-Fi network allowing up to 3 devices to get online simultaneously.
