RE: [SLUG] (OT) ISDN connections



Bernhard,

funny you should bring ADSL up. There is a preliminary news item about
ADSL with pricing for the trial covered on LinuxWorld.com.au

http://www.linuxworld.com.au/news.php3?tid=1&nid=75

I have also heard rumours that the ADSL pricing will be a similar
structure to the BPA pricing.
