and then he said something about communications being knocked out since the sky went purple.

Which would follow that it was an electromagnetic event.

'Something' had to have kept them on the side of the island to where they couldn't see the other island.

They sailed round the OTHER direction of the island.

What I don't get is in episode one ben told ethan that he could reach where the plane was in about an hour if he ran there. Wouldn't that mean that they would have to be on the same island?

Underground/underwater hatch (tunnel)?

hmmm

maybe in the season premiere they were at a different location than they are now.

I seem to recall them (Others) leaving their camp at the end of last season no?

I wasn't impressed with the whole different island thing, I mean you would assume that there were other islands around.

That camp was a ruse. Think about where Jack is being held. I'll bet ya there's something connecting the two islands together and that that underground hatch is a connector of some sort.

They've gotta have some underground tunnel system connecting the two islands....or well they did have that other small fishing boat!! Don't forget that. But they gave that boat to Mike and Walt. Hence why they needed the other boat!!

If they didn't have an underground tunnel system, then how did The Others get to the crash sites? Surely they didn't swim that far. And unless Ben can walk or run on water, he used an underground/underwater tunnel as well.

ETA - Agreeing with you BTW.
