What was cool about this program

[kiwifrog]

I liked the chapters selection and markers they utilised for this episode. It was cool to be able to skip to the info I wanted. Plus being able to link to a specific part of the video is a great idea.

Are they going to employ this teqnique in all their shows from now on?

Ironically I watched the entire episode, even though I don't have a IPhone or similar and the cell phone network here is so expensive to utilise one, minimum contract is 3 years costing around NZ$9000, They don't allow them on prepay networks.

Uhhh, what!? A 16gb iPhone 3GS is NZ$1,149 from the Apple Store NZ, unlocked and you can use it under Prepaid on Vodafone or even Telecom XT.

Minimum term is 24 months if you do go the contract route, or you can build your own plan with Vodafone and get a discount, but Telecom will take iPhones on a contract as well. The cheapest iPhone-only contract on Vodafone is $40 per month for 24-months = $960 (+ $699 for the subsidised iPhone).

NZ$9000 for the life of the iPhone were the first plans Vodafone released last year, but they quickly changed a month later...
