As for the satellite dish. I am in a bit of predicament there, because if I wanted one, I would have to pay for the damn thing myself, not like many others.
Reason being that apparently Telstra has broadband facilities in the area, but has no ports available at the nearest exchange and they are not planning to upgrade it either. While at the same time, the mobile phone service for Wireless internet is very poor as well, and unreliable. I tried it the other day and all I could get was 52.5 kbps speed, while I can get between 40 and 50 with dial up.
As such, because the service is available, (although I can't be connected until someone will cancel their services), Satellite is not avalibale under the federal Government scheme either. A catch 22 situation to be in.
I know it is out of the AOE forum, but I though I better explain my position.
As for AOE I still reckon that someone else will come out to get us out of this mess that the Management and Board got us all in.
And I am very eager to be able to read the opinion/report on the AOE sale by each and every Director of the Board.
