Pretty Impressive, throughput is around 300-600kbs, broadband speed, shits
on three.com.au!
$29 for 10 hours, $2.45 per 15 mins there after..
$49 for 20 hours, $2.45 per 15 mins there after..
$99 for 50 hours..
$149 for 100 hours..
PC Card is $799, Free if you contract for 24 months on the $99/149 plans
(1st of Jan, its $199 to connect for 24 months to get card discount)
If its like the 1x network, should be pretty good, only metro coverage at
this stage falls back onto 1x at no extra cost, regional to come next
*waits* :)

So, share price slowly rising, EVDO to provide 300-600kb/s "broadband to
the Bush" and Howard will have control of the senate come July.
Gee, I wonder what's on the cards next. ;)

will be rolled out on all cdma base stations within 12 months, the reason
for the delay is it requires a hardware upgrade on all base stations, not
mainly software like when they rolled out 1x, is available in some selected
regional areas at launch, more to come online as soon as they can get them
up

By the time you get to Telstra's debt collectors, your debts are already
three months overdue.
