Hot NBN100 deal: Score AU$10 off a speedy MyRepublic plan

If you’re in the market for a fast NBN100 broadband plan, gamer-focused Aussie ISP MyRepublic is offering a sweet deal for new customers, knocking AU$10 off the monthly cost of their 100Mbps tier for the first six months.

MyRepublic scores well in ACCC speed ratings, with a Typical Evening Speed of 83Mbps – so gaming, 4K streaming and connecting multiple devices should pose zero problems.

You can BYO modem if you already have one, but MyRepublic will optionally sell you one for a one-off fee of AU$99.

This plan also includes a VoIP phone service, meaning you can make and receive calls through your broadband connection. Every call you make is PAYG (pay as you go), and you won’t be charged any other fees (such as line-rental) for phone usage.

If you do make a lot of land-line calls, for an additional $10 per month, you can get unlimited local, national and Australian mobile calls. For $20 per month, you can get the above, plus unlimited international calls to 20 landline and 30 mobile destinations.

You’ll need to commit to a 12-month contract to get the discount, with the plan priced at AU$79.95 per month for the first six months, then returning to the regular AU$89.95 price from there on out – meaning you save $60 all up. The minimum total cost over 12 months is $1,019.40.

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase .

While sports and concerts tickets might not be a booming market right now, Caine suggested that the company is actually seeing increased purchasing activity “in and around the Airship platform” as businesses try to drive more in-app purchases. He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
