I guess in my case its partly voodoo economics, as I have two mobiles and landline through telstra, plus my big pond dial up, I get the discount which gets applied to all services, effectively making my current internet access ( 29 $ per month) free. Looking at the bigpond website it appears that I can upgrade this to bigpond cable, and with the 12 months half price and the free "self installation" I can go from dial up to cable for effectively nothing for the first twelve months. I had discounted adsl as I am on the Hammersly exchange and my understanding is that adsl through this exchange is flakey at best, any one else heard this?
