The nation's largest telco, Telstra, has unveiled a new iPhone plan which will see new customers getting a $100 account credit when they purchase a new plan.
Telstra has announced that it will allow its customers to tether iPhones. In a software update released over the weekend, the block preventing Telstra iPhones from being tethered was removed.
Newly merged mobile telco VHA has announced it will extend Vodafone's iPhone 3G S to 3 Mobile Australia customers, who have previously not been able to buy an iPhone through its telco.
Optus has outlined the additional cost its iPhone customers face if they want to use their device as a modem.
2008 was a cracker year for telco in Australia, with so many huge events happening that those at the beginning of the year have been drowned by the importance of those at the end.
Around one third of Australia's telcos have shut their doors over time, but that isn't stopping new ventures hoping to chip away at carriers' mobile call bonanza. By fighting carriers at the smartphone rather than the home phone, could the latest two contenders be onto something big?
So how many of you have bought a 3G iPhone? Do you feel like a sucker? If you don't, maybe you will once your first bill arrives.
Last year I opined that, even if Telstra did launch Apple's iPhone 3G, conflicting goals meant it couldn't afford to seriously back the product. This year, Telstra proved me right, and the reason is simple: Australia's biggest telco just wants to be a Mac.
Internode has no incentive to provide free access to its Wi-Fi networks for any reason at all, apart from genuine love, and maybe the joy of finding a new way to flip Telstra the bird.
What a week it's been for mobiles.
Telstra has revealed it is considering plans to allow customers to tether their Apple iPhones.

Is it finally time to ditch Optus' buggy network and go back to the dark side? Is it time to take my iPhone to Telstra's Next G and hang my head in shame?
