Down in Canberra tonight staying at the (slightly weary-looking) Rydges to attend the AFR Government Technology Summit this week. Check out the agenda here, it's a pretty heavy-hitting lineup of government types.
I'm up tomorrow facilitating a panel about single sign-on and related e-government issues. But that's not what's got my attention right now.
I've got my hands on an AFR-issue notebook that the help desk kindly agreed to equip with one of Vodafone's new HSDPA data cards (disclosure: they sent it to me for a review, and I guess I'll have to send it back some day... ; ). That means no hassles about finding WiFi, or paying through the nose for in-room broadband.
I just ran a couple of bandwidth tests and got download speeds of 810.8 kilobits per second and 961.7 kbps. Apparently it can get up to 1.8 mbps - we'll see.
Oh, and if you're in Canberra swing by the conference and say hello.
