Well, the one I liked best was the famous mountain climber who used his
Newton and greyscale QuickCAM plus Tibet (no one ever explained or AFAIK
has duplicated this hardware combo) and a satellite link to broadcast pics
of his climb of ?Everest?.
I found his web site about a year ago and the pics and a short description
of the way he transmitted them (about as brief as my description above)
were still up. (anyone recall the climbers name?)
Pretty neat. And that was 3 or 4 years ago now, I believe (Newtons and the
now defunct satellite phone system were both going strong :), and quickcams
were owned by Connectix and greyscale....

phone... and would like to do this, just ONCE : )
