Can't answer the question Jon, but my suspicion is the 2Mbs is an
opportunistic precursor to Video over DSL, tossed out at this time to
put oil on the waters about their UBS manoeuvrings and other
regulatory issues.
Progress toward the 250,000 "Broadband" connections will be reported
November 1, I hope.

Is this anti-competitive?
Assume an oversell of 12:1 on 2mbps, Telecom gets $420/mbps/month for their trouble.
Can any ISP in NZ compete with this at any scale?

I got a charming email from extra informing me that their flat rate customers charged @ 69.95 will be going from 256kbit to 2mbit in the next month, the first I heard of it was the email. Was anyone aware this was going to happen and it was just me having my head in the sand or is this as unexpected as I find it.
