I assumed that this was what the original poster meant.

The price I quoted was from memory, but it may well be $450. I prepaid a
full years worth of charges so I've not actually had to look at my Telstra

However, I do remember that one 2xNDD1 was NOT the same price as two 1xNDD1
line.

Go figure!
