If it's of interest I have an NBN / iPrimus fibre connection in Brunswick; for $43/month bundled with a $27 VOIP phone account; I get 5GB peak and 10GB off-peak at 25Mbps down and 5Mbps up; mostly speedtest seems to indicate I'm getting about 22Mbps down, with actual downloads anywhere from 12Mbps - 22Mbps; dropping to back to 120Kbps beyond the 5Gb cap.; price is not brilliant; but I don't have to worry about rain !
Well, since I'm paying just 7% less than that for my soggy (not always) 1.5 Mb/s, the internet price looks just fine. I'll have to compare my phone bill. If the NBN makes it to the outer suburbs, that's not looking too scruffy, unless they start charging more for stringing it a bit further between houses.
