If you're in the market for a military grade tough phone without the bulk, then check out the latest IIIF150 Ultra Thin Rugged Phones.

In Sunday's segment on Sky News Australia (Weekend Edition with Jaynie Seal) we covered the delivery of the first Tesla semitrailer in the United States. Australian truckies are set for a much longer wait to get behind the wheel of Elon Musk’s latest electric vehicle. At the moment the Tesla Semi might be too wide according to Australian regulations and although its range is 800 kms (impressive) - it won’t make Brisbane to Sydney on a single charge - YET.
But this is a game-changer vehicle. Even under full load it drives like a car. This could encourage more truckies into work. Acceleration from 0 to 100 kph in 20 seconds (full load), single seat but you can stand up in the cabin, powered by three electric motors, safer downhill due to regenerative braking and recharge to 70 per cent in 30 minute using "mega chargers".
