Well done Telstra with the extra capacity for the City to Surf on Sunday. With 70,000 participating plus support teams and volunteers the normal mobile capacity at the finish at Bondi is really tested.

Telstra took the trouble to roll out a Cell on Wheels right on the beach promenade. This made it possible for its customers to get in contact after the race and even to email photos like the one to the left of the CoW. I observed first hand the frustration of some folks (not on the Telstra network) trying to link up with their family at the conclusion of the race. They gave up after multiple call attempts.
