TelstraClear has said New Zealand and Australia are different markets and it is under less competitive pressure here.

So they're openly admitting that they offer comparatively worse service than Telstra in Australia simply because they have less competition here? And at the same time are saying that NZers don't want faster broadband? Thanks Dr Freeth! Not that I'm surprised in the slightest.

Note the quote in the paper is exactly the answer TelstraClear gave here on Geekzone, the week before the "news" in the mainstream media came out...
