The opposition has unveiled a scathing amendment to draft laws proposing to fundamentally restructure Telstra, in an attempt to delay the changes.
For NetSuite customers, price, availability and performance of applications outweigh the desire to have their data kept inside the country, the company's CEO Zach Nelson said today.
Telstra said today it will oppose the passage of the government's Bill which would allow it to force separation on the big telecommunications company.
Communications Minister Stephen Conroy flashed his Next G-connected iPhone in the Senate today to show the resilience of his carrier's share price.
The telecommunications industry seems to be wreathed in euphoric mist after today's announcement which looks to lead to Telstra's separation, but there are still voices of caution to be heard.
In the second of our two programs looking at the Senate Inquiry into the Telecommunications Legislation Amendment Bill, we hear from shareholders, bureaucrats and industry groups.
Virtually everyone in the telecommunications industry has their say in the Senate Standing Committee's public hearing into the pending legislation to split up Telstra, in this week's Twisted Wire podcast.
Now that Minister Stephen Conroy has played his hand regarding Telstra's separation, the hard part begins.
The global financial crisis might have tarnished some of Silicon Valley's lustre, but for many Australian technology entrepreneurs who have migrated to the US, it hasn't lost its bright shiny status.
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.

HP's 21.5-inch monitor is fairly average for its class however, in the face of its limitations, the price doesn't add up.
Its limitations mean that the only scenario we can recommend the w185 in is where you need a dirt cheap monitor for extremely basic use, like to throw in a server room. Otherwise if you're looking for quality, we'd look elsewhere.
ViewSonic VX2433wm is a low-priced monitor with acceptable performance for everyday tasks.
The ST2310 has a low price and is good for everyday tasks, but it lacks some of the extra features included with similarly priced displays.
