	Without Telecom Australia aproval, no. If you want me to fax
you a form, e-mail me. Most of the gear will work, but local regulations 
are among the most strict in the world. Faxes will need to run off 240v
50Hz AC, phone equipment off 50V DC.
	You won't be able to connect US exchange (PABX) equipment without
specific authority from Telecom, and they will want to acceptance test it
before you can use it. Expensive.
	You are probably better off buying the gear locally.
