In late November 2010 I was challenged by Vodafone to travel from Lands End to John o’Groats with no money or food. I was given five £10 pay-as-you-go FreeBees SIM cards to use as currency and I bartered my way for 900 miles using social media. I took only my iPhone 4 for photos, video [...]

I got hold of the iPhone 4 today. I checked the O2 website for stock and saw three phones listed in Western Favell in Northamptonshire. By the time I got there there was one left. I really did not fancy renewing my O2 contract as I get through way more than the limited 500mb monthly [...]

August 24, 2009 by · 7 Comments
I have had a personal wifi hotspot of sorts for a while now. A 3 mobile 3G router and dongle have been taking up a large space in my tech bag whenever I am out and about. If I am near a socket it runs from the mains. If I am mobile or in the [...]
