My two cents worth.
I'll tell you my answers and WHY I have selected each and every one of them
1. NBN will NOT deliver what was promised - nothing the Australian Government, Lib/Lab has ever been what's it's promised EVER
2. NBN is NOT worth spending $35,700,000,000 - of course it's not - over priced, under uterlised staff. All government contracts with government prices (oh and Townsville & Surrounds has to be COMPLETELY RE-WIRED) - I bet at our cost
3. I will connect to the NBN regardless of cost - You would be crazy NOT to connect the NBN when offered the chance, It's rumoured the cost could be $1500 later to connect + all the other monthly charges
(PS It will be years before we get NBN, we are rural and you know what the government think of us)
4. I belive that the NBN will be cost/benefit ineffective - Refer #2
AND........... The killer for me (literally) Once people have the speed of the NBN, they will drop standard voice call services (like landlines) and use Skype - but Skype is only a fair-weather friend, the minute the 240v walks out the door, so does Skype and once that occurs a household could very well be out of contact in case of emergency - see my problem?
The NBN will KILL people - MARK MY WORDS
The Victorian Government is already softening people up to expected power failures during summer, so what chance has the NBN got in an emergency?
