3G network brings internet to Mount Everest climbers

3G network brings internet to Mount Everest climbers

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-11651509

"Mount Everest climbers can now surf the internet and make video calls through a 3G network, Nepalese telecoms firm Ncell says.

The company has installed eight 3G base stations along the route to Everest base camp.................."

Brings a whole new concept of "Hey! Watch this."

Next thing you know they'll be putting in a Golf Cart path to the top.
