Care of www.ausmobile.com, Thanks Jeremy:

"Optus and Vodafone have announced that they will work together to build and
operate a joint national 3G radio network infrastructure. According to
Optus, the radio network represented about 2/3 of the costs for running an
network so any deal to share that cost would be beneficial to both parties.
Both companies will also be able to use the combined expertise of Singtel
and Vodafone International to make the network more reliable.

While both companies will share 3G infrastructure, they will provide
completely separate customer services and compete for customer business.

The two companies expect to sign the final agreement by late October 2004.

More details of this deal should be revealed in the coming weeks."

Rod comments please :p :)

Why post something interesting like that and ask Rod for comments?
Why not ask everyone or anyone for comments?  And you guys wonder why
he's got a big head and is arrogent!  Sheesh.

Actually, it wasn't. This information came from a press release Optus made
and we were among the first to report on it.
Also, we have stated earlier that there is no copyright on the news itself,
only the way it's reported, so I've got no idea what you're complaining
about.

Tell me Wong, why do you seem to have a vendetta against Jeremy? Has he done
something wrong by you like railroading your beloved Hutchison?
