Nearly Ready!

Only 5 days to go - it's getting really exiting now!

Thought it might be a good time to tell you how all this works.

When we arrive in Kota Kinabalu next week we'll test our technology to make sure it's working. Then from our smartphone (a Treo 680 if you're a geek), we'll hopefully 'blog' here regularily so you can keep up with our antics while we're away.

Most blogs (including this one) , have a 'comments' link to each post, you can click this , and write us a message and we'll read it out to everyone on the trip.

(Your comments get published on the internet too, so dont write anything you dont want the world to read)

Now, this was a big success on the last trip, but it depends on 3 things: 1) Getting our phone to work over in Borneo, 2) Having some charge in it, and 3) Getting a signal.

So, if you dont hear from us for a while on here, dont panic! - we're probably just out of juice (because Mart keeps buying solar powered phone chargers, and they're all naff) , or we have no signal, or our technology has stopped working (GeekSpeak: Our GPRS isnt working, or smtp e-mail isnt working).

Last time we were very successful with text, but not with pictures - fingers crossed this time. Happy reading, please leave us a comment and say hello!
