We don't have satellite yet and can't get Prime. If relying on iSky to watch free streaming, then the ISPs DNS service must be used. OpenDNS for example gives a "not currently available" message.
According to iSky this is the list of ISPs not metering data (ie you can watch as much as you like and it wont count towards your data cap) for the site:
Vodafone
Orcon
Slingshot
Woosh
Xnet
Snap
Wiz Wireless
Farmside
PlaNet

It would seem to be a case of 'El Tougho' if you're with Telecom ?

Where we are there is no terrestial reception of Freeview or anything from Wellington. Currently we rely on a translator just behind us, have to decide whether it's worth putting up a satellite dish just for the small amount of TV we watch.

1291806 2012-07-31 08:59:00 It comes with age - like fine wine, cheese, Old Masters, jokes by Henny Youngman - age is in and of itself a license to be a curmudgeon.

1291810 2012-07-31 21:20:00 Yes and no. There still has to be some control and skill by the rider

Yes. The horse may go round the course in whatever order it feels like, the rider has to stay on and look good while on.
It's a bit of both.

I have watched some of the men's gymnastics too, that routine they do on the rings, man, they're strong.....

And if I can, I'll watch our best shot put competitor win again.

Rowers went well last night too - can't wait for Semi's tonight and Finals tomorrow!

Phelps was denied the gold yet again this morning by a RSA swimmer . (That's South Africa btw not Returned Service Association =D)
