From Slashdot. http://slashdot.org/articles/06/07/26/127205.shtml Presence-pc at reports that France Telecom just announced they are offering 2.5 Gb/s internet connection to select cities in the Paris region. For... $85(70 Euros) a month you also get free phone and TV. From the article (in French): "The historical operator opted for a GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) FTTH architecture (Fiber To The Home). This technology allows up to 2.5 Gbits/s download and 1.2 Gigabits/s upload."" - Will Telstra, the other consortium or whoever just get off their asses and give us something decent in this country. I know we don't have the population density, but surely we can do better than what we have. ...Skeeve _______________________________________________________ Skeeve Stevens, RHCE Email: s k e e v e @ s k e e v e . o r g Website: www.skeeve.org - Telephone: (0414) 753 383 Address: P.O Box 1035, Epping, NSW, 1710, Australia eIntellego - s k e e v e @ e i n t e l l e g o . n e t - www.eintellego.net _______________________________________________________ I'm a groove licked love child king of the verse Si vis pacem, para bellum ---- email "unsubscribe aussie-isp" to m a j o r d o m o @ a u s s i e . n e t to be removed. |
