Since South Australia and Victoria's lobbyist registers became effective this week, many companies have included themselves a good proportion of which are representing large technology brands.
The South Australian government has named the six telcos which will be on its telecommunications services panel, singling out Telstra as the supplier of its mobile services for the next three years.
South Australian ISP Internode has set up a WiMax service to provide broadband access to the Yorke Peninsula region west of Adelaide, but not before its new infrastructure was almost built over.
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 Government has locked in Dimension Data for a further three years under a managed network and security deal worth $36 million, with the government shaving off over $1 million a year from the value of the past contract.
It wasn't too long ago that critics of WiMax wireless technology were declaring it dead at the starting gate.
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.
Getting Senator Stephen Conroy's regulatory reform for the telecommunications industry through the parliament would need support from the Senate. On Twisted Wire we ring around to see which parties are supportive and which are against.
Will Internode's (sudden) and dramatic price hike for its broadband plans undo the G9's plans for an affordable, high-speed broadband network?
Yes, says iiNet, and the telco giant's price chains are keeping smaller players from venturing down the rural broadband route.
