The Orcon crew invited us (Geekzone users) to join them today 19th February 2009 from 6pm to 8pm at Alice Bar (Forresters Lane) for drinks and a bit of talk - I guess there will be an announcement there too.

Feel free to join us there.

Oh yes, just do a search for "international bandwidth", "latency" and "dropouts" in the Orcon forum!
