JAG

I understand that Childrens day is this coming Saturday (14th). I have taken Little Miss JAG to the jollies at the Airport for the last two years, and would like to try something new. Anyone about with any knowledge of what else is going on? Thanks in advance.

Hello

First, I am a technological pigmy, and so I need some very simple answers.

I have a house in a rural part of Chiang Rai Province, in a small village some 25km from town. The village has a landline which runs in along the main road, and supports a couple of telephone call boxes. (why I don't know as everyone has a mobile!)

There are DTAC and AIS towers within about 5km. Edge is available.

I am currently and for the immediate future in the UK, visiting about 4 times a year ( I look after my elderly mother). Wife, daughter and stepson are in my house.

I would like to be able to use Skype Video calls to communicate. I am not over bothered about the video quality, as long as it is workable.

Can anyone suggest how to achieve this? Options seem to be:

1. Aircard with DTAC or AIS, although there seems to be some doubt as to wether this would be fast enough to support Skype Video.

2. A landline into the house from TOT. Again, I suspect that the distance from the exchange is such that the copper string would be unable to provide a fast enough connection for Skype Video.

3. A Sattelite connection.

Has any kind soul any suggestions?

Thank You
