I've looked at their website. But they've gone down! Haha.
Seemed too good to be true though...

correction, telstra and vodafone are suckers.
hope you arent defending octopus.
sigh.
have your buyers beaten you up yet iCantwait?
Actually id have to say optus and vodafone are, sure theyre plans are better but overall im pleased with my plan, i dont use alot of data (although that may change with more being available) and lets face it telstras coverage is the best, let alone the fact vodafone and optus have no coverage in rural areas (including mine) due to the frequency issue. im happy with telstra overall with my business over the 7 years ive been with them. Btw, you remember me at all? trying to buy my optus deposit lol
yeah i remember.
tell me what your data allowance is and how much you go over at the end of your first month![]()
If you've got Push on, it'll obviously be always connected, sending/receiving at any time.Hey, just a question for you iPhoners. I was reading on Mactalk and a lot of people were complaining about that the iPhone was using data in the background without using any internet apps etc. So is that what everyone here is experiencing? I was just wondering because i want to go on telstraeek: i know, but everyone is 1c mad here and no one will text me otherwise) and the 5mb limit will easily go over if this is the case

5mb will begone in 3 webpages. Less then one day of sitting around doing nout. What's worse, 24 less texts per person or $400 bills
I know what I would prefer... Optus $59 plan, 500mb of data $350 of calls and a 16gb for under $200
There is a push setting on the phone allowing for automatic connection to push email, mobileme, calendar/contacts etc where you can set it every 15 mins or every hour to push any email etc to your phone - obviously if this is set up then you will blow your usage out. I have disabled this on my phone and I also get into the habit of checking the data usage meter to see if my kb's sent/received have gone up. I mainly use my phone through wi-fi for the data side so I dont have any problems
The telco spurned by Apple so far -- Three -- has announced tasty plans for iPhone users who bring their own 3G handset.
Three doesn't have the announcement it probably wanted to make: that it is to become the fourth official telco to be selling the iPhone. But it has a tasty offer all the same: fantastic value plans for people who bring their own iPhone to the telco.
Currently, the only way to get an iPhone in Australia that's not locked to a particular network is to buy an iPhone through Optus on a prepaid basis, then pay an $80 unlocking fee. Prepaid iPhones from Optus cost $729 for an 8GB model, or $849 for a 16GB. Combined with the $80 unlocking fee, that equates to $809 for an 8GB and $949 for a 16GB.
When you bring your own phone to Three, the telco will pay you $300 to offset the cost of buying the phone from Optus. Suck on that, Apple!
So the real starting price for putting your iPhone on Three is either $549 for an 8GB, or $649 for 16GB. But after that, the pricing becomes a lot sweeter than any of the 'official' telcos. The catch, however, is that you have to sign up for 24 months with Three -- fair enough considering they're giving you a $300 credit.
