[Jan Whitaker]

 From Slattery's Watch today:

Telstra to build submarine cable to Hawaii
Telstra will own and build a 9000 kilometre Sydney-Hawaii submarine 
cable to allow increased data, voice and video transmission 
capability to the USA. The submarine cable will provide transmission 
capacity of 1.28 Terabit/s to Hawaii where it will interconnect with 
other cables providing direct access to mainland USA.  Alcatel-Lucent 
will build and lay the cable, and the project is expected to be 
finished by mid 2008.

iiNET will act as Fairfax Digital's exclusive ISP and promotional 
billing partner under a twelve month contract for the soon to be 
launched Video on Demand service.
