we have looked at doing this, we are just working on the finer points,
currently to route a subnet to an ADSL customer would result in the
customer being billed twice for their traffic.

once via telecom for the jetstream usage and then again by us for the IP
range usage, this obviously isnt something that we could sell a customer
on so when i get a chance i will be arrangeing a meeting with our
marketing people to see if we can sort out pricing for routing subnets to
people via ADSL.

no doubt as soon as one ISP starts this bandwagon rolling others will
follow suit and you all will have a whole bunch of products to choose from
that are identical but involve different costings and have different names
attached to them, i wonder if we can get our marketing people to include
free blinky lights with each product sold.
