[AusNOG] Simon Hackett's presentation from Comms Day yesterday - NBN fibre on copper prices

[Jake Anderson]

I don't really see it being a big problem.
If you want a single channel use RSP equipment for cheaps.
If you are going multiple then you can either use NBNco's current box 
and supply your own multiple routers both of which would be at your expense.
Or get a router that's smart enough to handle multiple services.

I do hear where you are coming from with lock in, but that problem 
should be solvable with software, IE something akin to rapid churn, at 
time X RSP-1 is cut off and RSP-2 is turned on for your service.
RSP-2 will then call you (or not) to walk you through the setup.
