That's a pretty good price for what you get.

If you want something similar (all in one unit that reports to the internet) that's available now, have a look at NetAtmo or the HP1000 station from ebay.

They upload to the weatherunderground site which then keeps track of your historical data etc. There's lots of sites already across Aus:

Jamesf, Thanx for opening my eyes wunderground is very handy indeed. It offers a higher resolution of local conditions not available in bom data, very cool.
