Happy New Year 2009

To the readers of my blog, I hope I will be able to more frequently update as I have just invested in a Huawei mobile modem, which will most likely enable me to blog from the forests of Minneriya with no electricity direct to the web. The modem cost me Rs6000/- and my commitment with Dialog is at the rate of 1000/- a month for which I get 1GB. If I were to get unlimited data usage, the monthly charge is Rs 3000 +vat and I at present that is a little pricey. Those of you in the know will tell me that 1GB is not a lot, so I just intend to use it not to surf the net, but just to enable me to upload to the blogs from time to time.

I am really excited about this possibility as all this time I was stuck to only being able to upload once or twice a month when I got to some place that had internet access. Now I can sit with the elephants in a National Park and blog with photos almost in real time!! that really sounds awsome. Well it is isn't it?
