No that can't be it, we got our Optus cable phoneline with the
box-on-the-wall about a month ago now.
Now I've got Foxtel TV, Bigpond Advance internet and Optus phone. The
Bigpond contract will expire round March next year. Hopefully I'll hear
from enough @home users to make a well informed decision on whether I
should convert my existing cablemodem into a $600 doorstop (or whatever it
was exactly).
