'The lowest usage option, aimed at residential customers,provides 600
megabytes a month - equivalent to about 220 hours a month online with a
dial-up modem. This usage option is available from Telecom for $69 per
month.'

Ok ive found this, is this it Dan?.......:)

M. Barlow did at our meeting i think hint at 1 and 3 gig volume offers and i
think he said "17 cents a meg above or what ever". In time i wouldnt be
suprised to see this rate appear and eventually flat rate appearing. Who
would have said 3 years ago when ppl were paying $10 a meg from Actrix that
Xtra would be offering a $40 flat rate in three years time?

As for 600 meg 'limit', well my usage this month was about 350meg i think
down from 750meg the month before and 2 gig the month before that. Lots of
my 'volume' is now via analouge modem and i dont think my enjoyment has
dropped too much, I do miss q2 though :(.
