The Asian arm of one of Europe's largest telcos, Deutsche Telekom, has announced it may join the race to build Australia's urban fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) network.
Optus and Vodafone have signed an agreement today to create an AU$700 million alliance to share 3G network sites and radio infrastructure across Australia.
While developments around WiMax are gathering pace, it could be rival wireless standards, like 3G, that benefit from the technology's increasing maturity.
The nation's largest telcos, Telstra and Optus, have welcomed the Australian Labor Party's election promise to facilitate a new national fibre broadband network with up to AU$4.7 billion in funding, and key telecommunications reforms.
A group representing the 3G mobile telephony family, in town to lobby politicians, says Telstra wouldn't be able to service rural Australia properly if the telco sold off its CDMA network.
Tis the season to be jolly, to give, to receive, to have a sherry or two and fall asleep in front of the telly. And, if you're a mobile network operator, it's definitely the season to share.

The perceived viability of 3G networks has taken another blow with UK mobile company mmO2 announcing it had made a pre-tax loss of £10.2bn, and admitting that it paid well over the odds for its third-generation licences.
