Dave - So from what you saying, the cap can be exceeded? I thought a cap was exactly that?

It depends whether you have a soft cap or a hard cap. A soft cap will allow you to go over the cap limit and you then pay for each call as per the call rate charges of the cap plan. A hard cap will allow a certain amount over the cap limit and then calling out will be barred. If you are going for a cap plan, make sure it is a soft cap (most of them are)

I am on a $59 optus cap which gives me $350 of credit...and a dopod 838 (which is same as the i-mate jasjam)

working for telstra i can tell u they are the best. they may not have the cheapest plans out but if u bundle it with your homephone u reep massive benefits.....and the best thing is...when u take up any business plans....all call rates are 11cents for 30 seconds.......try beat that!! and all u need is a ABN....u could even use Telstras which can be found on google :(

i wont even mention how Next G is gonna destroy all other competitors........and i wonder how everyone is gonna cope with CDMA when it gets phased out....they all gonna have to turn to telstra.....and dont worry if ur on CDMA with telstra we are upgrading everyone to the Next G network with a brand new phone for FREE!

Thanks for all the info guys and the links too. Time to make a decision on it. Optus has the blackberry on a good plan that I like. Telstra has the coverage and the history and Vodafone also has some good deals.

Cheers all :huh:

lol dont get too excited. Optus has got some awesome stuff in their pipeline, when that is released it'll be just as good as Telstra's service.

3G is way overdue as it is. Some one needs to crack the whip cause it should have been done by now.

But yeah once Telstra goes 3G, everyone else is fcuked

no it wont. optus is going"sole" in their 3G coverage in some up-coming areas (ie. pissing off Voda). it wont be of any competition to telstra's NextG network.

telstra has gone 3G for quite a sometime now.... yes, both WCDMA2100 and WCDMA850

where is telstra WCDMA2100?

Optus is 2100 and so is Hutch. Telstra were the only ones to go 850...make that the world, (expcet one carrier in the US)

I wasnt aware of any 2100 real deplyments by Telstra. I'm intrested as it relates to somthing I'm working on over the next few months.

telstra is the half owner of the hutch 3G network at the moment (joint partnership). telstra is currently budiling the 3G network for Hutch nation-wide. when there is no hutch 3G coverage, you get put on telstra GSM900 network.

optus and voda is the other partnership in the other WCDMA2100 world.

what will you be doing over the next few months?

      Short shifter r34

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Don't do it if your gearbox box has already having syncro issues. The short hifter will put a greater load on them. If you must I remember Nismo did a shorter shifter, with the top part being physically shorter and the part that went into the gearbox was the same as stock. In saying that I've had a C's short shifter (I think) in mine for many years, which was given to me as the previous owner was not sympathetic to the gearbox. Thus forwarned I was careful and had to modify my normal changing style. You have to be super accurate with your clutch and shifts

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      Well, after a week of daily driving and having to crawl out between the wheel and the side intrusion bars. I got myself a quick release setup. I went with an NRG short hub and Quick Release with some cute heart cutouts on the pull tabs. Nice and matchy matchy with the rest of the interior accents I have going on.  The only downside is the total stack height even with the short adapter is longer than the old HKB boss kit. Luckily I had some adjustment left on the column so move the wheel away.

      stock shifter with new bushes, springs and cup will improve it. Gktech do all the bits. The opinion as the years have gone on is the redline is not great in old gearboxes.

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?

      R34 oil and timing belt change

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
