Proud Geek Dad Moment
So, we're driving along the Hume Highway, on our way to Canberra. We have taken both our cars (Moira's CX90 and my A4 ), as we had some extra passengers on the trip. My mobile rings, and Billy answers. It's his brother Antony, who is in the other car. He tells Billy to turn on his Nintendo DS, so they can play against each other wirelessly from each car as we are travelling at 110km per hour. All the kids have a Nintendo DS, as well as a copy of Nintendogs, which has provided great holiday entertainment to the kids. It also made a geek dad really proud. Oh, by the way, the wireless worked really well. The DS supports 802.11 which means it has a a wireless range of 30 to 100 feet, or so they say. It works on the highway too. Maybe Nintendo should update their fact sheet, to include this. [listening to: (Nothing But) Flowers - Talking Heads ]9:09:27 PM  comment [] trackback [] G!
