Yes I know that these prices use to exist. We have implemented some of them
for our clients. Fortunately for the consumer this is the year 2000. IPNet,
ADSL, Cable, Fibre are the happening thing now and they are C-H-E-A-P. IPNet
replaces Frame? 512Kb as opposed to 256Kb @ $520 an end instead of $2500 an
end. ISDN calls have been caped at flat rates. DDS stands for Dead Data for
Silly people. In the year 2000 $73 cable connections will wake up the market
place. ADSL will need to either follow or be ahead of the market. It was a
great piece of witchery that Telecom pulled to introduce this product on its
copper while holding back the competition for so long. Watch this (Cyber)

id think they were waiting for the sothern cross cable??
i mean if they were interested in screwing us wouldnt jetstream be more
expensive?
lets see what options did i have in auckland
frame relay = 2500$
DDS =1200$
dialup(yuck) $45$ month + calling charge $0.048 x 60 min x 9 hours day x 5
days x 4 weeks
tristan $500+ per month!!!!
ISDN = $1000+
adsl =$179
as a business customer i feel like im getting a pretty good deal, what are
my other options?

tristan
p.s count me in for jetlite at home...
