Yikes, Cal, your tech advice and timing, is uncanny and amazing as usual! I just returned to my home in Colorado after spending a month in Australia with Fam. What I like to do is ride the bike I keep in that country wherever I go. This time I ventured onto the remote and beautiful Thredbo Valley Track in the Kosciusko National Park. For these trips I own a magnificent iP13 mini (fully sim'd up with the best coverage money can buy at Aussie $17.50 for the month - thanks Telstra), this beautiful piece of tech affords me nav, tunes, comms and of course, endless tunes on Amazon... while I ride the 40km, deserted this time-of-year, valley trail. As I ventured further and longer I started to realize I was out lasting my 13-mini battery and found myself turning it off to ensure I could always phone-home in an emergency. Yikes! What to do. Then, bam, your piece slips silently into my morning email-read with the answer. Click, click and my friendly Amazon delivery man will have the answer to me in a few hours. Thanks mate!
