Well, it's been a bit since my last post, and all I can say is you only really realize how much you depend on new technology (Internet, Cell Phone, etc.), once you are cut off from them. Right now, I have almost no internet-access (I have to use either the public PCs in the lobby of my hotel, which cost quite a bit to surf with - or, as I am doing right now, use a colleagues' laptop), and basically no mobile phone access (I brought my US-mobile, but they charge me an arm, a leg and a kidney to use it) and apparently Australian cell phone providers are really picky who they give a mobile contract to (Right now I would need 5 different forms of ID, plus a sample of my blood and DNA, and character references from both the Pope and the President of the Untited States :-p) I have to investigate if there is a way around this - I want a local cell phone, but I do not want to mess around with this prepaid nonsense, if I can help it.
I'll keep posting as I get a chance until I finally get a work laptop, which I can use (which should be either tomorrow or on Monday)
until then - Cheers!
