That would be something else considering even High tech japan is at 50mb (last time I checked)

Yeah Japan rules for their internet.
Every new house over there must have a fibre optic connection.
Goes to show that if a goverment is serious about something that anything can happen.
In OZ we have the world record fastest wireless broadband provider in the world 21 mps (telstra), but they are so expensive. Not bad for a dongle hanging out of your computer, but our wired internet is so freakin slow. I am on a wired adsl2 connection and the fastest I have reached is 10mps. Curently we are 19th in the world for our net speeds.
Our current prime minister is serious about getting Australia some serious speed on the net. He is a tech junkie and i reckon he gets the shits with having to wait for stuff to download. He is also pushing to make us have the fastest in the world. _________________________________________________________ Mattster

Personally i think the PM's son has been complaining to his old man about how he is lagging in COD4 and COD5 when playing his xbox 360 online lmfao.. hehehhe
Good old ruddy is sick of his son complaining so now he's gonna roll out 100mb eh.. well fuck me..
lmfao... I wish the PM was my dad.
put it this way.. If this baby goes ahead.. Good luck to anyone in the world trying to play the hardcore gamers from HQ.. Instead of us getting the lag everyone else will.
