Haha unfortunately not. They only cover Northland with their wireless internet service and the Northpower Fibre network.

1221061 2011-08-05 08:18:00 Good grief! I want this!
If they can provide 150GB for under $100, why goes an extra GB cost $7?

Then again, who the heck is likely to want more than 150GB/month?
(mind you, I've seen a post from USA where a guy hit 1TB and discovered his 1TB cap that way)

How long until the existing crowd of ISPs get access to this line? I'd like to keep my existing ihug email if possible, but if they can't/won't compete with this for some time then I might just make the leap anyway.

1221063 2011-08-05 20:28:00 This is the first affordable plan in NZ that I've seen which would actually allow us to use Steam the way it was intended.

Currently I have to cripple all the auto-updates because I can't allow it to eat 4GB of my cap any and every time it wants to.

Bleeding updates drive me nuts, but on a plan like this I wouldn't have to care.

Unless you are with orcon in the near future with steam being added to the O zone.
