err.. we do have broadband here (heck im connected by cable now) but its only in the capital cities, ADSL however is available in a wide range of places and by 2005 will reach 98% of the population. There are many different types of connnections (in the capital cities anyway) and cable, ADSL, ISDN, frame relay, fibre, leased lines of any speed, and wideband IP services. If you pay you can get gigabits of speed. Australia is not America but we dont live in the stoneage
