We came home on Saturday afternoon, after going out to test drive our new car, to find our broadband connection was not working. Occasionally we get a glitch with the units that control the satellite broadband connection, so I went into the garage to reset them. After a number of tries, with still no connection being established, I decided I better let eHotspot (my broadband supplier) know. On ringing them, I was met with a recorded message telling me that the company that provide the satellite connection to eHotspot (Aramiska) has suddenly and with very little warning gone into receivership and had pulled the plug on all of their customer's connections.
eHotspot are now running around trying to get a new supplier setup - good luck lads and lasses. eHotspot are providing a valuable service to a large number of rural communities with their wireless broadband service, so I can only hope they are successful in the near future for all of our sakes.
This does remind me of a recentish comic strip from the well known (in Amiga circles anyway) Creature Anthropomorphic artist Eric Schwartz. This cartoon is one of his monthly published strips featuring Sabrina the Skunk:
Oh SOOOOO true!!!
