May I ask where did you find good rates in Austria?

I've never followed up on any of these because I'm not currently interested in leaving the UK. But a quick search of my inbox shows Graz is where most of the work is, and the latest rate I can find in any of the emails is €70 per hour.
If I were to take on this work through my Ltd company it would translate to a salary equivalent of around £101,000 or $130,000 US. What you actually get out of it probably depends on your exact tax situation I guess!
Most of the work in Austria that comes my way seems to be embedded systems or kernel work, though one or two are Java related.

Damn, I live in Graz and work in the embedded field and never get any contracting offers in my inbox.
Would you mind sharing some, maybe in private?
