Not really, about 60KM south of Sydney, in a city (pop. 300,000+) called
Wollongong.

One way Satellite is about $AU75 a month (400kbps/3GB), plus ISP another $25
or so, plus line rental, about $30, plus call costs, about $30. Total, is
about $AU 160 a month for Satellite.
ADSL is able to be used, if they got of their behinds and installed a card
(Presumably similar to installing a PCI card or something) in the local
exchange. That would be $70 a month, for a faster service.

Not great either then... :-)

I'll just quietly be bitter about the whole thing, with the added knowledge
that others don't have it great either.. :-)
