Broadband a New Sailing Necessity

sail boatHere’s a quote from an article I just happened upon:

It’s clear that Next G phones and wireless broadband services are a must for sailing events and clubs across Australia.

You know the need for broadband has gone mainstream when you read an article (Sailing Events and Sailing Clubs need Next G) on the need for broadband on a sailing web site. It appears as if the vendors who coordinated the technology (Telstra Country Wide Central Queensland) may have written the article – but it is telling to see the prominence. And for the techies in the crowd, it is fun to hear about how they handled the need for communications at this sailing event.

Looking out my window at 2 feet of snow and reading about broadband in Australia is giving me some ideas for a research junket next winter!
