I would also recommend iiNet for similar reasons. They have both the ABC mirror as well as several linux distro repo mirrors which are in a 'free zone' which doesn't contribute to the download cap. I am on a 'Naked' plan which counts uploads as well but is balanced against included national fixed-line calls (voip) and no line rental. $30 line rental + $20 telstra budged plan + internet cost vs. internet, free national calls, decent mobile rates and voip international rates... If you're into PVP and don't leech then it would effectively cut your quota in half, but even then it still seems... reasonable. If it suits your usage then the naked idea is very appealing... cheers, Owen. -- ubuntu-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
