Time is counting down until they release the iPhone 4th Gen in Australia and I can't wait to get mine so I can start playing with it. My big hope is that I'll be able to blog with it when I am away without having to lug around a laptop instead. If it's not winning me over to do that I'm going to look at getting an iPad - if I can afford it (even on the student rates it's expensive but it'd be good for uni as well).
It got me thinking too about the degustation night. I wanted to have something that people could fill in to donate to Cure Cancer and eventually decided I'd have my laptop. I mentioned it to my colleagues and one of them suggested getting hold of Apple and seeing if they would donate an iPad for my trip to blog on but as I sat through one of two of the most time wasting meetings I've ever had today (2 in one day...rediculous!) and I watched a client with his work iPad it hit me - why not ask if I can borrow enough to have one on each table at the Degustation for people to be able to donate online while having a play with an iPad and also having a look at my website? Fingers crossed that in weeks to come I will hear back from Apple in Sydney and that they will say they will loan me several iPads.
Fingers crossed team!
Every single day 300 Australians are given the news that they have cancer. I was one of those people who was lucky to catch it in time. My mum wasn't. My challenge is to raise funds and awareness through embarking on a physically demanding trip through Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam so that Cure Cancer Australia can provide funding for doctors researching a cure. This blog is an honest unbarred online account of my journey to prepare and complete the challenge.
