Marking time to join the band

Interesting part of this SMH article is the reference to Unwired Australia's wireless broadband network in Sydney. It's bandwidth is similar to cable and ADSL but the selling point is that it is a wireless service so as long as the area you travel to eg home to work to uni to wherever..., you can still be on the net if your notebook has this service installed on it. Prices are similar to other services. Brilliant idea!

You can type in the street names and suburbs in Sydney to see if you'd get Unwired coverage. When it covers the few streets I'd like to have access, then I'd be keen to sign up.
