To be blunt, I am less interested in the mobile speeds, and more interested in the hints this article holds towards when Australia will FINALLY see the iPhone. The article seems to suggest that 2 weeks after it is announced it will be in Oz. Given that WWDC is in 2 weeks.

Australia may have the iPhone within one month!!!

Wouldn't it be nice...

When you click through these links, the anonymous source becomes "A senior official claims" and then when you click through again its the Telstra CEO mentioning NextG upgrades without ANY mention of the iPhone.

Telstra may have the best speed, but they will charge an insane amount for the data - and your uploads count.

I'll be on Vodafone thankyouverymuch.
