I’ve set up a new site. http://www.ipadicle.com/ (it rhymes with Radical, but is spelt completely different)
I plan to add all iPad tips, tricks and news on the site, as well as hopefully gain some discussion. The idea is to make it a one-stop-shop for everything iPad. From Developers to regular users, hopefully it will become [...]

Is fast approaching. April 10th to be exact. While I’ve not been in the past (I was busy last year), I’d like to attend this year, and perhaps even contribute something.

Is Optus really improving their network like they have been advertising?
Today I achieved probably the best speed test that I’ve seen ever on any Optus 3G service I’ve had. Reception/signal isn’t even that good in this building. I managed:

maybe… the best I’ve gotten is pretty much this:
This is on a $1 sim, with 300MB of included data. (using Sierra Wireless Apex 880 USB modem) Not bad, possibly shaped. I wonder what the speeds are like if I subscribe to their service? I wonder. The same? maybe… faster? maybe. I won’t be finding out [...]
