I've been using Kiwi Voip on Starlink for a couple of years with no problems. I use an old 2Degrees router (Fritzbox) to provide a physical…

Sorry no news. However the new dish became available in the US a while back (2 or 3 months). A big advantage of the new dish is that it is…

Just a reminder that at Noel Leeming you can normally get a useful discount on the dish with a card such as: Motor home, Gold card,…

I didn’t give a good description of the equipment cost. Its difficult because there are many options. Some build their own from scrap…

No. If anyone has a cheap supplier of sugar I'd like to know please. I guess what I was trying to say is that NZ is one of the few…

If the post doesn't get removed I can add some details. (Just didn't want to put too much time into if it was going to be removed.)

No you are right, I've used the standard marketing tactic of saying "from". The real cost is more like: 4 +600/(nm) where n = # bottles and…

Moved to Forum: [Original Link](https://www.paknsave.co.nz/shop/product/5003886_ea_000pns?name=white-sugar) (I’m not quite sure whether…

Thanks. I've now found out why most of NZ has no black electrical tape (0319369), Botany has been hoarding it (1054 rolls!)

Might be a bit out of your way, but they have the AAAs in stock here in Nelson

Thats a pretty good deal. Probably even better than Bunnings 50 Arlec AAAs for $15.42 (note that they hide these in some random location in…

Can anyone please recommend some shows/movies that might make it worthwhile getting Neon for?

It will be interesting to see what the Black Friday price for the 2nd gen will be. Its my understanding that the RAM remains unchanged from…

It has some technical advantages that may be useful to some: WiFi 6 (may give you faster speeds if you have a WiFi 6 router) The newer AV1…

ComCom publish speed comparisons between 2D and Spark in the [MBNZ…

It has Wifi 6 (google TV and google TV 4k don't) It has the new AV1 codec (google TV does too, but google TV 4k doesn't). Potentially…

The ComCom [test reports](https://comcom.govt.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/320326/MBNZ-Autumn-Report-28-June-2023.pdf) show HFC to be…

Yeah, the 1355u benchmarks well too. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/4977vs5317/Intel-Core-i7-1250U-vs-Intel-Core-i7-1355U

Looks like the deal is still on. (I successfully entered the code just now)

Not sure how you feel about Samsung, but their website has some good deals (https://www.cheapies.nz/node/41489).

If its of any consolation, its my understanding that a WOF can be 2 weeks post dated from the inspection (assuming that you had at least 2…

The price has gone up today. Now $729, or $334.15 with CSC discount.

@guysaturday Thanks for letting us know that internet is not required for signup (and presumably un-pausing a subscription) Some other…

Its mainly for rural, but there are a couple of non-rural use cases: - during a natural disaster when the normal telcos are down (eg caused…

Currently $325 at NL, but down to $173 if you have membership of CSCBG (probably also Gold Card, Motor Home Association, Farmlands etc)…

Thanks for the info, think I'll get one too.

Are you happy with the A04? I'm in the market for a basic phone

The Firestick 4K max also supports the new AV1 video decoder (the CCwGTV (4k) doesn't).

Looks like it might be premixed fuel...but I'm not sure who would pay the normal price of $18 / litre for the small container? So I'm…
