Costs to change equipment and configurations ?

Changes to plans and the like are not free - I know when working at Asia
Online (remarkably small when compared to telecom) it cost around $50k (I
think that was NZD but may have been USD) or there abouts to implement a
new product (or plan in this case) in the backend vantive database.

I would be guessing that Telecom would have a lot more than a single
system to change when implementing a new plan so if the plan never takes
off then its a sizeable ammount of dosh to throw away.
