hehe Pinner.. I presume you didn't manage to get on another contract and you are going to 3 gig after July 1 is it?

I guess you would've heard the rumours of not including multicast, arp and udp data? That would be pretty good of Optus to do that but I doubt it would happen unfortunately. Oh well I might be dialup but I feel your pain. I could have another grumble like everyone else does about the state of broadband in Australia but I think that's pretty self explanitory isn't it. Interesting piece Dan did here. Would be funny to see what Optus has to say but they'll prolly give him the cold shoulder or something.

Now all you need it a bunch of Telstra users to come in and laugh at you but I'm sure you've already gotten lots of that :D

Anyone with Telstra cant really laugh at us on Optus cos Telstra is still way worse than Optus. Optus may have gone the Telstra way in pricing but they dont delete their customers files from their webspace, and they dont accuse their customers of plotting to do Distributed Denial of Service attacks. :lol:

Yep but i dont care what happens they cant take away my netstats till May next year cos we moved in May :D.

MUHAHAHAHA Optus prepare to give me 244GB :D

Also just before the contract finishes i will be inviting as many people over as i can fit in my house and will have a download lan all weekend as my personal protest against the Singtel fags for screwing over Australian broadband :)

That way whether they boot my brother and i off their network or the contract ends, i can move on to the Internode 8 GB plan for "39 (to be announced this week)
