A surfboard has now been developed that lets surfers surf while surfing. The prototype board has been built by Devon “shaper” Jools Matthews. It houses a laptop, solar panels, and video camera. The world’s first wi-fi board uses a high-speed net connection point – hotspot – positioned on the beach.

Coincidentally PierToPier offers absolutely FREE wifi connectivity on Brighton beach. PierToPier is an experiment in community networking by interested individuals and has been rated by Apple UK as one of the world’s coolest hotspots.
