I suspect that Telstra Clear is being cleaned up for sale.

Why do I think this?

o The Aussie Govt wants to sell the part of Telstra Aussie that it still owns 
and will want some quick runs on the board (balance sheet).

o The new CEO of Telstra Aussie has a history of selling off peripheral 
assets. His credo, 'When the going gets tough sell something.'

o The new Telstra Clear CEO had a pretty mixed record at his last gig, so he 
can't say with credibility, 'keep it I can turn it around.'

o These new plans are probably being implemented at the urging of the merchant 
bank given the task of flogging Telstra Clear off. (Revenue projections)

I am going to make a wild guess and pick Telefonica as the new owner.

The subscriber to this list who works at Telstra Clear should rehearse the 
following phrase;

" I for one welcome our new conquistadors."

Cheers Ross Drummond
