"succeed in the area of the provision of broadband services, but equally as important was securing growth in third generation (3G) mobile"
Succeed? ...yeh right. Checked the price of GPRS data lately? Does anybody actually believe that 3G data is going to be affordable for the average bloke when the network is finished?
C'mon, even the other ISP's renting exchange space for their's and Telstra's ADSL service are complaining - mine's changed it's prices twice in the last few months because they don't know what Telstra's up to.
Personally mobile data would be a godsend for me and I would use it - but at current data costs they can shove it. Wouldn't it be better to drop the price and get people on it - earning a lot by having a small profit would be better than earning the same amount by raping a small amount of customers with high costs to make the same profit.
Don't they realise that business needs a customer base? If you screw a customer, then it won't take much for them to switch to someone else.
Food for thought?

Worse still is the fact that profit decline has accelerated in the second half of the year to $1.04 billion.This is a fall of 46% in the last 6 months.This fall has occured whilst Telstra has been "slamming" mobile phone and broadband deals to customers who do not want them.Thousands of people were sent unsolicited broadband adsl kits when they made a simple enquiry and gave their name and address. Do not believe the broadband growth or for that matter ANY rubbery figures produced by this mob of gangsters.Sell now .It's gonna get worse.
