Your observation is accurate, but unfortunately what we have is a mess because we have a government which does not understand anything about the problem is has created.
Three dumb Technologically uneducated Senior Ministers, one after the other, including the current "Dumb As" Minister of them all, just does not understand the mess they have created.
Nothing will change as long as we have to put up with SPIN as a solution!
Why should we expect anything like a sensible response from the "Tom & Jerry" team running Telstra???
Their only interest is robbing all Australian blind to ensure their pockets are well lined with the cash gouged from all of us!
Keith Styles...please be reasonable and a little fair. Australian shareholders have just paid sixty thousand million dollars for Telstra which the Howard Government accepted with glee. Surely you do not now expect Telstra Managment to damage their Company to help and assist competitors. Believe me if they did they would find themselves in court charged with dereliction of fiduciary duties. Managment is duty bound to protect the investment of shareholders and to act accordingly. Sorry Keith but this is the way it works in business and it is the way it is designed to work in a free enterprise, capitalistic system. Optus and friends may have cadged one billion dollars from Australia this time but believe me all this freeloading is about to cease and people had best start to learn to stand on their own two feet or they will not survive.

Unfortunately this problem stems from Telstra 'inheriting' the national infrastructure from the once government owned utility. Now Telstra run around saying that everyone else should pay to use it.
When selling off Telstra, the government should of held on to the infrastructure and made Telstra pay to use it like everyone else.
