Agree that as with most plans, it depends what you want. Ultra would appeal to people who still feel secure in having a conventional phone line, which is quite likely not the same bit of the market that wants enormous download limits!

Given you can get a 25 gig naked DSL with $5 worth of included calls on your voip through Adam Internet for the same price i don’t see how $70 for 5 gig is considered as “not bad”, or “sweet!”. At this stage no you can’t keep your phone number, and it doesn’t seem to be exactly the same service, but close enough to see that 25 gig is hell of a lot more than 5 gig.
As far as ADSL compared to wireless, err, no comparison, different services, there are so many things you can do with 1 over the other, you simply get the one that is going to suit you rather then whatever is cheaper (generally speaking)..

Well, comparison to a $40 USB plan isn’t entirely fair, since the latter includes neither line rental nor VOIP credit.

The internet plan is a good start but still expensive compared to $39.95 wireless usb plans and also compared to internet plans in other countries such as China or HK is far expensive.

Sweet!

I have been waiting a while for this. Now I just have to get Telstra (or a sparky) to come in and fix up my phone line so I don't get disconnected whenever a call comes through then I'll be in VOIP/ADSL2+ heaven.
