	I can't help you with the PPP stuff, but in Tuesday's Australian
	there was an ad from Telstra's Big Pond service (on page 10 of
	the Cutting Edge section) that offered a Motorola cable modem
	for $49.95 a month (you need to sign up for 18 months). It claims
	that you save $600 and the offer is good til the end of the year.
	You get a standard installation and a connection to Big Pond
	Advance (whatever that is). I'm not sure if you can hook up a
	CM to a Sun, but I suspect that it won't be a problem. Either
	call 1800 060 391 or got to http://www.bigpond.net/advance
