Do you have IDS? This is not a really condition, well I don’t think it is, but if was not until after my ISP decided to break with no notice I found out how much I have become dependant on the Internet, especially at home.
I was only without the net for something like 40 hours, for which a great proportion I was either asleep or at work, but that being said it is almost christmas, and there are those last minute gifts you just have to get ordered. Without the net, this is neigh on impossible unless you want to brave the great unwashed.
No some of you may say “Well you’ve got an iPhone” true, very ture, but when you can only get a slow connection on it and your trying to shop on Amazon or play the iPhone is not at it’s best.
