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

[Beeson, Ayden]

Didn't know that, wonder how that'll all translate over with the NBN though.

Thanks,
Ayden Beeson

That's pretty cool, though I'd be surprised to see Telstra offering something comparable it'd definitely go a long way to solving this for most people.

Telstra already does offer something comparable.

They have CSGs to comply with.  In rural areas where it's too expensive to light up a
new CSG-mandated service with copper, it isn't at all unusual for them to supply a
mobile phone on a billing plan that matches PSTN.

(same for Bigpond Broadband -- I know a few farmers who have it supplied by CPE
that has a NextG SIM in it)
