The Federal Government is extremely likely to be forced into a legal battle with Telstra after kicking the telco out of the National Broadband Network bidding process, according to numerous industry onlookers.
Telstra's apparent non-compliant bid has ruled the telco out of the running for the $4.7 billion National Broadband Network, Terria chairman Michael Egan claimed this afternoon.

The frequency is changing from wired working to a wireless world. Can this new wave of technology help you gain the cutting edge?
Let's face it, mobile commerce never delivered on the hype that surrounded it over the last few years. But that doesn't mean mobile commerce is dead, thanks to a new use of an old technology.
