<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Greetings wireless folk,<br>
I posted this msg to committee today and ended up being a little more verbose than first intended. So, my run down is as follows:<br>
<br>
Hey, the barbie was great, awesome day, good food, and bearable company ;P<br>
<br>
I estimate there to have been about 25 ppl, maybe slightly more or less, Mostly 'regulars' from the meets i feel, didnt really notice any new faces (apart from the better halves of a couple of meet regulars ;)<br>
<br>
Was pleasantly surprised to have BOTH 'net access and power available, Well done Steven and Michael for assisting in that regard. I understand it ended up costing Steve an alternator, so big extra pat on the back there.. Sacrificed to a good cause CRC, think of it that way ;)<br>
<br>
The net access was sweet, Ap on a tripod running from batteries, impressive stuff. 'just' a modem link, but was greatly appreciated by all. Lots of mail checking/sending and instant referrals to sites happening.. It dropped a couple times in a minor way, and we ended up getting g-lined from austnet pretty quickly, as was most likely expected by all, but again, Thanks Michael, that was great.<br>
<br>
Also, Steve's MP3-Vehicle was there providing some tunes (or should that be 'd00fs'), and was the 'other' network available on the day, I managed to leech a few mp3's onto the iPaq (i want the rest of the blues bros soundtrack ;), and walk about 200m away from it while streaming songs off it..<br>
(was it 200m?, anyway, story tellers right to improve the story and all that ;P)<br>
<br>
I took off about 3:30 or 4 so may have gone on to a hard night of drinking and abuse for all I know, but, it was a fun and valuable day, Not in the same scale as the installfest maybe, but the intention was as much a social gathering as a wireless event, and in that, it did very well, Of course id like to have seen more ppl there, but hey.<br>
<br>
, thats like, the biggest e-mail ive written all day.. better cut it out, someone might think im working ;P.<br>
