Pricing issues are irrelevant to users like myself who live in the Metro
district but are unable to set up broadband due to inferior Telstra
cabling in their neighborhood.

Which really has limited relevance, because the access to cable is so
limited
And even ADSL does not get to even 90 % of houses.

Still a rip off compared to almost all other WA ISP's.


I think that you have only looked at ADSL prices. The unlimited cable 
price would kill any other ADSL price at the same speed.

Yes. No. I dunno. I'll have a look at it, but it's going have to be 
brilliant to be better than Jamie Curmie's Launch! effort. Somehow I 
don't think it will, especially after reading though the specs. I'll 
say one thing though - if it asks for an Administrator password when 
installing, I'm not touching it.

Subject: New! BigPond Broadband Cable Login available now

Dear BigPond Member

BigPond Broadband is happy to announce that new connection software  
for BigPond Broadband Cable is available now.


The new software is called BigPond Broadband Cable Login and has been  
developed by Telstra Research Laboratories Broadband E-Lab.  It has  
been designed to replace Amicus Launchpad, the connection software  
previously supplied with your BigPond Broadband Cable service.


BigPond Broadband encourages you to upgrade to BigPond Broadband Cable  
Login now.  To download the new software, please visit  
http://www.bigpond.com/broadband/support/downloads/cableclientupdate/


Please note: Downloading the new Cable Login from the BigPond  
Broadband website is unmetered and will not count against your monthly  
usage allowance.


BigPond Broadband Cable Login has new features including:

- Auto-reconnection if the connection to BigPond Broadband is lost
- Optional integration with the BigPond Toolbar (for more information  
on the BigPond Toolbar please visit  
http://www.bigpond.com/helpcentre/toolbar/)
- A connection log-file and improved error messages to make it easier  
to solve connection problems
- Improved useability and integration with Windows and Macintosh  
operating systems

- Advanced options to help customers that use firewalls.

We expect the transition to the new software to be quite  
straightforward.  If you need our assistance, technical support for  
BigPond Broadband Cable Login will be available from BigPond Technical  
Support from October 1.


For online support and additional information about the launch of  
BigPond Broadband Cable Login, please visit  
http://bigpond.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/bigpond.cfg/php/enduser/ 
std_alp.php?p_prod_lvl1=3&p_search_text=BBCableLogin


BigPond Broadband will be withdrawing customer end-user licences for  
Amicus Launchpad on November 9.  We request that you delete or destroy  
any copies of the Amicus Launchpad software after the 9th of November.


As a result of this change, Technical Support for Amicus Launchpad  
will no longer be provided from that time and support will only be  
available to customers using BigPond Broadband Cable Login.


If you need further information on the withdrawal of end-user licences  
for Amicus Launchpad, please review the Frequently Asked Questions  
here:

Yours Faithfully,

The BigPond Team
