I’ve been following this adventure on twitter on @KentonCool’s quest to make the first 3G call and also to send the first live tweet from the roof of the world.

And he did it last Thursday and what’s perhaps more amazing is that this is his 9th summit of Everest – some achievement 🙂

Well done and congratulations 🙂
Edit: for those that may be interested there is a profile of the guy here
Wow pretty cool. I guess Samsung sponsored his expedition costs.
I don’t have sound here at the minute, so am curious as to what the underpants graphic was about in the first video (around 1 min 15s)?!

haha – he was wondering if the battery would need warming as it’s -20c 🙂
He was sponsored by samsunguk, good advert for the phone
So he put it in his pants! Remind me not to borrow his phone ;-)!
Yeah, cool advert. Shows the extremes you have to go to to get noticed these days!
