This ski season Telstra’s got a heap of snow must-haves – from sunscreen to moisturiser, water-proof mobile pouches and photos to share with friends – on offer as part of our Next G™ Essentials hubs at Mount Hotham.
While there, keep an eye out and smile for the Next G™ photographers who will be hitting the slopes and fun-parks to take pics for you and your mates while you’re out and about. Then head on down to the Next G™ Essentials tent where you can check into Four Square and check-out your pics on a high-tech iPad and range of cool Telstra Next G™ mobiles including the new iPhone® 4.
Plus, simply share your pic on Facebook or via email (and complete the entry form!), to go in the draw to win an amazing ski adventure for four to Whistler. We’re also giving away some great daily prizes, including the super sleek Samsung Wave. Get all the terms and conditions details here.
You can get in amongst all the action – and get hands-on with some cool Next G™ gadgets – at Mt Hotham from 20 – 30 August or jump onto the Next G™ Essentials website for all the latest updates!

Too bad we cant use NextG, at Charlotte’s Pass Ski resort in NSW. Lots of skiers, lots of mobile phones, but no coverage!
Skiers rely on their mobile phones, to stay in touch with their companions. It is easy to get separated, when on the slopes, so mobile coverage is crucial.
I hear the complaints everytime I am down there.
Especially when I say I work for Telstra.
It would be a fantastic thing if mobiles could somehow double as very basic avalanche transceivers (maybe via a waterproof case), or be mapped to mountain maps to guide skiers onto rhe correct lifts (by lift name) to get to a particular location or find friends / groups who you have lost.
Great idea -$300 credit to use on the Mt. I was down at Hotham two weeks ago: 45cm new snow, helmet with sound, iPhone 3GS loaded with beats, and i’ve got NextG coverage all the way up Heavenly chairlift for an itunes download refresh. Amazing technology!
