This will be interesting.

I've seen many pundits claim 'affordability' when their perception is  
markedly different to others. Marketing droids know that 'reaching  
90% of Australians' is not equal to 'reaching 90% of Australians who  
are willing to pay for an *affordable* service.'

Or maybe it will be dirt cheap, but with a restrictive cap on a  
'massive 1GB per month' (as I've seen quoted by some telcos)...
