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.

They are impressively thin considering how tough they are in and out of the water.

Image Matrix Tech on Sky News: Why no Internet voting - Google IO AR glasses - farewell iPod

In Sunday's segment on Sky News Australia (Weekend Edition with Tim Gilbert) we discussed why Australia doesn’t have federal elections online. We’ve had some online voting in Australia but nothing on the scale of a full federal election.
