Obviously the intent is to make sure you have moved over to their NextG network. Being no fan of CDMA (and pretty much stuck with it where I live in Vermont), I just had to laugh. Kudos to Telstra for doing something "funny" in the world of telephony!
Okay, I'm sorry, but I just find this way too funny. Do I refer to this as "DisruptED Telephony"?
Tip of the hat to Chris Brogan for tweeting it and Doug Haslam for posting it.
Kudos also to Blendtec, maker of mixers, for coming up with this "Will It Blend?" series of videos. I admit that I did watch some of the others in the "Don't Try This At Home" category. Fans of a certain recent movie release might enjoy what happens to a Transformer... suffice it to say that it... um.. transforms, rather permanently.
Obviously this particular video is probably also doing well for Blendtec... so far since it was posted yesterday there have been almost 241,000 views of the video at the time I am writing this.
So with the release yesterday of RFC4824, The Transmission of IP Datagrams over the Semaphore Flag Signaling System (SFSS), one has to wonder... which of the vendors will be the first to attempt to implement VoIP transmission in this medium? I think it would make for a rather slower conversation, but it would certainly be intriguing. Hmmm... I wonder which would be faster - this method? Or the avian method defined in RFC2549. Probably this one, methinks.
Oh, you have to love a standards body with a sense of humor...
