Solved, the answer was: 'wireless'

LMAO, damnit, i feel so stupid; it's so obvious now...

Well I'm pleased it obvious to you 'cos it's still well over my head.

Why do people hurt themselves by thinking so much....and for fun as well

[peder.klockmann]

Just by a system of trial and error. By using the hint 'Our colony will be first.' I started typing in various answers to the question 'What will our (ant) colony be first with/at?'.

Ie,

dead

exterminated

destroyed

alive

win

quit

lose

fryed

ect...

Then when you look at the lady, whom I believe is reading a book; and, imagine she has a laptop instead and, might be surfing the net... you could try:

computerized

relaxed

...wireless

ect...

Plus I guess if you print the picture it's rumoured to be a 3-d magic eye that says 'wireless'.

Da.mnit solved before I had a chance to have a crack at it

Hint: 'The countdown is the same for everyone.'

The solution was 'Planet X'. By drawing concentric circles to fit the dots onto the Solar System and, by having knowledge of the newly discovered planet...
