"In addition, we are building a 900MHz 3G network which kicks off in April.

Cheers

Paul"

Did it happen?

Perhaps I should elucidate:

we haven't launched it yet... but it's there if you can see it.

It ran for a while here in Whangarei then vanished about 2 weeks ago so I presume whatever problem arose is still causing it not to "launch" in this part of the country?

It hasn't "launched" anywhere yet... there is no problem, we just haven't launched it.

Still working fine here, tired of the phone-as-a-modem game though, a USB modem will be great!
