j3/HP/Microsoft Live helps Starlight Foundation

Starlight Foundation is a great organisation helping those kiddies that have been dealt some bad cards in life, being a parent of two kids I couldnt think of anything worse. Over the last few years there has been a ride called Tour De Kids that help raise money for the starlight foundation. This year they are riding from Hobert to Thredbo, I think they know there is a large watery gap thats not bicycle friendly between the two.

Bernard Lee of HP approached me to help out the riders with a GPS tracking application I was only too happy to help, we have built an application that sits on the HP IPAQ that has an inbuilt GPS and send that information to a windows Live to show their current location.

I am also glad that I dont have to do the riding myself.
