Orbit Writer Update

 

We spoke about the orbit  Writer a few weeks ago, my ordered unit is still sitting in the US waiting to be shipped, so when it gets here we will talk about it.  However, Hamish (smile) may be getting his earlier than me, so we may have him on the program again soon.

 

Speaking of orders being delayed, just reminding folks that this also apply’s to orders from the Vision Australia Vision Store even within Australia.

 

We have also been advised, that Apple orders from the Va Store are also running at a 4 to 6 week delay due to supply constraints as well.

 

Sunu Band and Aftershokz Deal still available 

 

For $300 you can still pick up the Sunu Band and Aftershokz.

I still find the Sunu Band is great for social distancing when I’m out and about in public, particularly when shopping.

When coupled to my iPhone with the Sunu Band app, the Aftershokz still let me listen to my environment.

cSUN 2021: going virtual.

 

This is great for people that can’t afford to get to the US for the CSUN Conference.  I still find it odd that in this day and age, it took a world wide crisis for people to realise that you could run events virtually as well.
