Yes really
Yep
The existin copperwire is obsolete and worn out. Simply needs replacing and that's going to be with optic fibre. If it is not Australias landlines will go the way of the Dodo. Both Labor anf Liberal are going ahead with the NBN
The coperwire landline is ancient and aging. Fibre is cheaper to replace than copperwire and is capable of doing more in the way of Telecomunications than Copperwire. Australia has determined it is in the National inerest to replace it at a cost of at least $43 Billion.
What is the result of zero landline in Australia? Wireless base Stations will still need Fibre connections and each 4g station will have to be at least 30 kilometre radius (more in "blackspots")
I live in Campbelltown the Copperwire is so pathetic, higher speed broadband was a platform Russell Mathews MP for Macarthur was voted in on
