stop the rumour.. how ridulous that telecom will go for 512k for the jetstream starter (I wish telecom could, i don't think they will) unless u got proof that telecom will do it, i won't believe it in the meantime~!!

well i think, if they really start upgrading their package, i don't think they will begin after they have finished with the free connect promotion.......

I got an email back from telecom themselves, and AFAIK, you can call that number and ask them.. I'll do it later this afternoon... 256K for JetStream Starter maybe, but I doubt 512K.

As for X-Box Live, Ive talked to MS guyz @ the ICE Expo, and they wont release it at least until December!

150381 2003-06-09 03:40:00 Mmm, 256K sounds good, then I could get rid of one of my Jetstart lines, pity it's all speculation at the moment. nz_liam (845)

Well I connect at a constant of 7616 KBPS Down and 640 KBPS Up on both my jetstream lines.

150385 2003-06-09 05:10:00 hi chilling

yes i certainly believe telecom will increase the speed 256k, but however i certainly don't belive that they will increase 512k.....

150388 2003-06-10 05:02:00 I e-mailed Telecom about this. Here is the response:

Thank you for your request.

I have no heard anything regarding increasing our download speed for the Jetstream starter service. I have confirmed with our Jetstream team on 0800 253 878 there is currently no plans up increase the speed of Jetstream starter.

If we can assist you any further with this matter, or any other please feel free to contact Telecom on 123
We will be happy to help.

So there you have it (unless they are lying).
