Aaron Mcbride Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hi people,I'd really like to purchase F1 but don't think I can. I have an Internet connection at work; but just use the wifi from my phone if I need it at home. The maximum download from my phone is 5gb.Is there any other format to purchase F1?What about the book would that be a good place to start?

Joshua Slocum Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Foundation 1 is moving to a web-based format, which has a download size of 0. The current epub version is a few hundred MB, which should be under that limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Rackemann Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Foundation 1 is moving to a web-based format, which has a download size of 0. That's not true Hari. The web-based format simply means that instead of a once off download of 200MB like the ePub version, now you will be constantly downloading smaller amounts of content each time you view a page. How much content you need to download each time you view a page depends on how Cory has designed the page and also on your own particular device and browser. As an example, each video will probably require ~0.5-10MB of download every time you view it depending on the length. I believe Cory is working on updates to make these online courses as optimised and efficient as possible. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Rackemann Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Bandwidth limitations are not the same as maximum download size. Bandwidth limitation is also not the same as monthly quota. Good point though, I assumed the OP meant monthly quota and I didn't think about any limitations on file size. I simply wanted the OP to know that the download size is definitely not 0 as you stated in your original reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Mcbride Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Thanks guysI can not download anything bigger than 50mb at one tine.How much data would I require per month.Is there no other way to purchase the program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Slocum Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 The only available way currently is the web-based course. If you are frugal in your browsing, I think you could manage under 200MB of data usage per month (I'm assuming ~20mb/exercise, and a bit more for the text and progression charts). The key will be to minimize the number of times you have to go back and look at the course again. Take really good notes on the materials when you read them the first time; only look at the exercises you'll be doing during the current cycle, and take the time to really get the form down before closing the browser window.
