there are a fair number of twitter updates from @TelecomNZ, things that caught my eye is a music store with 2.6 million tracks and they will have EHSPA (aka HSPA+) going by Christmas time (most cell sites on fibre backhaul)

Anyone able to identify any more of the handsets?

Hope the pricing for the songs improves. I'd still rather just use iTunes.

Interesting times.

Great to finally meet Tony Hughes. Had a good eye to eye conversation.

The comments I write on this forum do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer and as such cannot be taken as official statements of my employer.

"Eye to eye" meaning you are both tall?

So whats the deal, I thought we could sign up to XT from yesterday but I have not seen any pricing plans, and the www.testdrive.co.nz has reset back to 15 days to go!!!

I spend 7 minutes yesterday trying to make a internet banking payment on my iPhone yesterday cause the internet kept stopping. VodaStop!
