*FTTP* is the only economic solution, even if it did cost triple what projected
Why? FTTN is thought to be cheaper. You have to bend definitions quite a bit to end up with a system where price is not a part of economics. Personal note: I'm okay with copper gigabit to endpoint at work, same at home.
If NBN will cost 44 billion and there will be some 11 million taxpayers [1] to pay for it each will have to provide $4,000. It does not look cheap to me - and no state funded enterprise ever ended without costing significantly more. [1] http://www.taxreview.treasury.gov.au/content/Paper.aspx?doc=html/publication...
