Telstra is testing the limits of its ADSL broadband to see if it can offer the service to customers who are living beyond the current range of the technology.
Telstra yesterday warned that insurance against any risk associated with electro-magnetic energy is becoming more difficult to obtain as insurers either become less willing to provide cover or charge prohibitive prices.
Telstra said today it would extend ADSL broadband availability to an additional 400,000 telephone services across Australia by the end of March.
Telstra's chief executive officer, Ziggy Switkowski, has paid tribute to Richard Alston following the Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts' resignation from cabinet. -The Senator has been an outstanding minister," he said, adding that the -great shape" of the Australian telecommunications industry reflects the government's policy settings.
Telstra has brought its technology, innovation and product development areas together into a new group expected to assume responsibility for much of the AU$600-$800 million in cost savings targeted by the telecommunications company over the next three years.
If a reminder was needed of the urgent need for a Federal Government response to the Cutler review of Australia's support for innovation, then it has come in the 2008 OECD Information Technology Outlook.
The possible ill effects on human health of mobile phones and towers will be studied at a virtual centre comprised of research organisations from Victoria and South Australia.
