Shame they're all in Canada. Much better than the USA, but still very far away from us in Perth.

A company like Kobo would seem to be an ideal candidate for tele-work, but there's no indication of interest in that on the site. I tend to associate on-site development work with "lots of meetings" but I can see it being different in a company involved in building embedded systems where there's real hardware to play with.

I'd be almost tempted to try for work, if only to get the chance to play with new hardware ... and get my hands on the Nickel sources. Unfortunately, they all read like full time jobs, which wouldn't be compatible with my existing work for a newspaper here in Perth.

(Hi sabredog, btw. I'm in Queens Park)
