gadgetopia writes "Although data 'calls' on 21Mbps networks and equipment have been made in the labs and in demonstrations, Australia is the first place in the world where such a call has been made on a commercial, deployed 21Mbps eHSPA network, with a full commercial launch due early 2009."

    Telstra are renowned for rolling out awesome networks and coupling them with the worst plans known to man. tiny quotas, and huge excess charges. in this case excess is charged at $250 per gigabyte, which at that speed you can consume in just over 6 minutes.

      Before any mods mark this as a troll, let me point out that Tel$tra still charge $150/GB for excess downloads on their broadband plans.
