I have to admit I _assumed_ that TPG were buying spectrum for NBN wireless
overbuild (ie. fixed) not YAMN (Yet Another Mobile Network).  I guess YAMN
can do both, but I'd have thought waiting for "5G" and not worrying about
mobile as a critical thing would have been the way to go. Start going and
doing infill in locations you can justify it.

But, heck, what do I know?
