Internet connection on a bus, wow!

I was just wondering how innovative our Smart Bus could get, if they borrowed a leaf from Rwanda. I'm sure everybody would wait for a ride, no matter the cost! Check this BBC's link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8266576.stm -- Solomon Mburu P.O. Box 19343 - 00202 Nairobi Cell: (+254-0) 735 431041 Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill! AND It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity! blog: http://desires-and-dreams.blogspot.com

Did anyone hear about the government tender for this project? Crystal On Tue, Sep 22, 2009 at 1:59 PM, Solomon Mburu <solo.mburu@gmail.com> wrote:
