I think Telstra have some rather biggish problems at the moment.
After losing my mobile signal at my house last Monday (Jan 17), I'm still
no closer to being connected to The World! Rang them yesterday, and they
trotted out the same stuff again: resources stretched due to CDMA "Teething
Problems" etc etc, no real word on when I can hope to regain the signal
(hilltop overlooking Queanbeyan and Canberra...and Hoskinstown!). But I bet
the bill will arrive on time.
