That's a figure I've never heard before... it must be for PERMANENTLY
connected ISDN, because I have a quote from Telstra for A$360.- for
the connection (per 128kbps!) plus A$940.- per year = A$78.- per
month, plus A$30.- per hour connect time (per 128kbps - depending on distance).
That's too expensive, but not s expensive as quoted by Andrew.
In Germany, it's the cost of a normal connection plus normal
telephone charges - ISDN or analog phone calls..... now THAT'S cheap!
My brother over there has it in his house and all he appreciates is
having 2 phone numbers for the price of one....
