You mean the NBN (National Broadband Network)? 8 month trials in Tasmania is what I heard. Deals to buy up fibre from companies, and probably 2011 at the earliest.

Figured I'd post it in this thread, but is anybody else finding the forums unbelievably slow right now? The front page has been inaccessible for about 3 hours now for me, and it takes about 5-6 minutes to load up a forum page, this is the only site that I am having this problem on.
