The Northern Territory government has bitterly complained about a lack of competition in the telecommunications market that it claims has led to it paying Telstra three to five times more for some communications services than the rest of the nation.
Optus and Vodafone will start offering third-generation (3G) mobile phone services in "metropolitan" areas of Perth and Adelaide from 1 July, the telcos said today.
The South Australian Police (SAPOL) will tie its disparate databases together into a new Oracle-based data warehouse.
After reports that the government is considering forcing Telstra to keep its CDMA network open against the telco's will, Telstra is now offering unconvinced politicians a chance to tour its Next G network.
The official word from Telstra and the Federal government is that the Next G Network provides equivalent or superior coverage to CDMA. Try telling that to the people of Mangoplah, NSW.
Telstra's 21Mbps Next-G boost and Internode's new 100Mbps FttH networks may be both companies' show ponies, but when it comes to helping most of us, their need-for-speed posturing is just a box-and-dice distraction that we've all seen before.
It wasn't too long ago that critics of WiMax wireless technology were declaring it dead at the starting gate.
Will Internode's (sudden) and dramatic price hike for its broadband plans undo the G9's plans for an affordable, high-speed broadband network?
