Virtually cruise the South Pacific

Surfing the net just got a lot closer to water.

While holidaymakers cruise on the P&O ship the Pacific Sky, friends back home can virtually join them by computer.

The ship now has Skycam, which sends live images of the ship sailing through the South Pacific and visiting ports such as Vanuatu, New Caledonia, Fiji, New Zealand and Australia.
