You will be fine for voice and text. Note that we don't have data roaming yet, although that is coming later this year.

It isn't relevant - your phone will automatically lock onto an available network.

It's relevant to me, It's a mine site, and Telstra is the only company that has coverage there, I had tried with a Vodafone SIM last time i was there and it didnt work.

How much later??. I'm going to Ozz for two weeks starting July 24 and was hoping that you would have this in place by then as per this thread Skinny Roaming.
