All I read from online forums and my little personal experience tells me that anything but Telstra eventually runs out of coverage/speed/usability. None of us is with Telstra (two are with 3, one is with Optus and can't wait to finish his contract with them to move on). Also it's much easier to manage the expenses on a separate device. Thanks for the idea, though. --Amos -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
