| 257139 | 2004-08-09 01:26:00 | Well, I can't get cable, woosh is with a 40 ft roof ariel (defeating the purpose), ADSL is all i'm stuck with, thinking we have a mix of the lot and nothing is proving it's worth to all. Now, I know there is the ability to upload and download from satelite's, thanks to some healthy postings, that, and a satelite with plenty of space reserved for us Kiwi's "just doing nothing" up there. This leads me to think the end to telecom's domination and price control of their service. (I wish I wish I wish) The thing that scares me the most was the recent article in pc world about getting a capped bite limit ... you pay for what you don't want as well, with the metered system. Personaly, from a business point of view the introduction of a per-M/bite fee is the best goldmine i've seen in years. Good thinking from a company that PROFIT's seven hundred million dollars per year (average)... off 4 million kiwi's? Make you want to stamp washers eh... |

| 257140 | 2004-08-09 05:36:00 | Ah, you're around the area they were planning to put Cable TV in, huh Growly? Same here, up in Auckland, 'cept we've still got the boxes right up our street. Apparently they didn't lay the cables with enough slack, and so couldn't join them (or something - this is the story I heard). That said, whoever they contracted to lay the cable wasn't very smart, because it is possible to join the cables when they don't have enough slack. |

| 257144 | 2004-08-11 05:40:00 | Sy, some people absolutely loathe read receipts. As such, they may decline to send one, or tell their mail client never to send one. And really, they are the most useless thing ever - if an email is so important that you need to know someone has received it, I'm sure you'll get a reply. Besides which, we don't request read receipts in real life, and we survive. |

Sorry, but the reason I ask is because my email has been acting a bit weird lately. It doesnt always send the stuff I want it to send :( ... even after it appears in the sent folder! |

| 257146 | 2004-08-11 09:44:00 | Setting up Woosh connection using USB for a friend. It's a nightmare! Within minutes after finishing the USB CD set up, Windows XP crashes. It's almost impossible to use the computer without uninstalling the USB driver. Rang their helpdesk and were told to buy the Ethernet cable!! Will never use Woosh or recommend it to anyone else. |
