Getting to Cannes without your work colleagues noticing

Adam Bird, co-founder at Esendex set himself a rather big today — that is, try and work via mobile without any of his colleagues noticing he wasn’t using a fixed internet connection.

So armed with a my Sony Vaio, Vodafone USB Modem and BlackBerry I attempted to spend the day travelling but so that no one would notice.

3 trains required (if you ignore 2 stop on the RER in Paris):

1. Nottingham to London St Pancras
2. London St Pancras to Paris Gare de Lyon
3. Paris Gare de Lyon to Cannes

Heh. How did he get on….? Read on and find out!

(You can also, incidentally, appear completely connected at all times across continents with a Blackberry running Google Talk or a mobile running Nimbuzz!)
