Well something has to to be done to change Telecom's attitute.

Saying that "Businesses that require more than 128kbps is a niche market"
tells the whole story of Telecom's attitude.

That is spin if I sever saw it.

If it is a niche market, then in a competitive market a supplier will meet
the needs of that market.

Only about 10%-20% of our full rate Jetstream users will be moving to UBS,
the remainder need a higher upload speed and are in no mans land right now.

Currently, their only choice is Telecom supplied bandwidth at 10c to 20c a
meg.

Yes it is a niche market, a very large one at that and Telecom have it all
to themselves.

Cheers
