[Tinyos-help] Sending data to Base Station not connected to PC

Hi,

   Thanks for the prompt reply, but I'm using TinyOS-2.0 and TelosB 
platforms.  How do I locate TOSBase?  I saw the TinyOS-2.0 tutorial 7 about 
Permanent Data Storage, but it concentrates mainly on storing configuration 
data, nothing much on writing blocks of data - my question is, is the 
implementation similar?  I'll search the archives again to get more info on 
this, but I'm not too sure if there'll be any that uses TinyOS-2.0 (most of 
what I saw so far uses TinyOS-1.x).

Regards,
Azhar
