Blue,
I heard so many different figures on the price -
from $34 billion to your new price - the highest - $100 billion.

When you lose your internet & phone for weeks at a time due to
water getting on the old copper wires -
just remember what Dave told you:

Honestly I think most of the left just viewed it as another shortcut on the road to Greece which is where they all long to end up.

you really should learn to read .... you were given several reasons as well as the actual cost ....

I realise it must hurt when you use your brain, but that's just because it's seizing up from lack of use, the more you use it, the more freely it will run and the less it will hurt ... honest.

Goodbye to the ftth nbn.

FTTN nbn -don't say I didn't warn you.

I'll be laughing in 6 years when the lbn provides no increase in speeds or service levels.

but in 6 years we will actually HAVE the FTTN with increased speeds while the NBN is so far behind that at this rate it will take 30 years to finish.

All we get now on HD TV is 1920 x 1080 pixels.
There is a newer standard that's 3 to 4 times more than that.

The NBN could supply that in real time so we could
have giant screens that were still sharp & clear.

Forget about it now.
Tony has seen to that.

$42 bil so you can get better reception on your wide screen tv, yeah totally worth it

I gave just one small example of the potential of the NBN.
I am sure there are other's we haven't even thought about yet.

you gave one completely worthless example - 4K real time TV to be displayed on TVs that aren't even available yet using source material that by and large, doesn't exsit ourside of movies in the last couple years.

you mean like how we ARENT losing our phone and internet ADLS services now? the maintenance of the pits is an ongoing issue and hardly a new one. Do you thik they are going to run fibre thru water-filled pits? Do you think it is impervious to such an environment? You are a a techno-galah.

nope we have still not seen one actual use of the NBN that exceeds the capacity of the current network.

Longweekend,
if you've ever seen optic fiber cable you would realize that
it's in a water proof jacket.
Even if water did touch an optic fiber it would still work.
Copper is destroyed by simple water vapour.

your ignorance is forgiven

When they are available, we won't be ready, because of you smacking ignorant Luddites.

then why aren't we building a network of highways for the next generation of 400KM/hr cars?

BECAUSE THERE IS NO NEED. no way we should be paying $100B so some nob like booby can watch non-existent material on non-existent TVs when he could simply buy them on disc anyhow when (and if) they become available in about 10 years.

idiots.
