I know of several people in my area who don't shunt huge files across networks, even though they would like to do so as their work requires it. It's too expensive and anyway, there is no practical alternative that's fast enough (around 10Mbps). So, they send CDs and DVDs on couriers. That's actually the Real NZ Broadband Connection Alternative.
Thus contributing further to Auckland's traffic woes.... If Auckland considered spending money on a decent network, rather than roads, then the traffic problems might sort themselves out, letting more people work from home etc etc...

The Wellington model can be uplifted and used anywhere - all it takes is someone to start the process. Cheers Keith Davidson
