A Driver’s Guide To Mastering Public Transit
If you’re used to driving everywhere, taking the train or the bus might seem overwhelming and just too much hassle. Even so, if you live in an urban area (and most Australians do), it’s a sensible option and a way to escape rising petrol prices and car maintenance costs. Here’s how to learn the ropes of your local public transit system quickly and painlessly.
Road Worrier Tests Jetstar’s iPad Rental Service
I was interested to read Angus’ writeup of the Qantas Q Streaming service a few weeks back, because it’s somewhat mirrored by the iPad-based rental service offered on Jetstar flights, except that Jetstar do not offer it for free. That doesn’t mean it can’t be good value for money, however.

Adelaide 4G Shootout: Mobile Data Is A Pig
Optus jumped ahead of its own schedule when it launched parts of its Adelaide 4G service late last year. That gave me the chance to put it head to head with Telstra’s existing 4G service on a recent trip there. The results surprised me.
