Thanks for the link carkitter. Interesting stuff!
At the beginning of the day, the gallery was near full, with lawyers and PRs for both camps filling a lot of seats; along with a lot of casual dressed onlookers who seemed curious about events; a trio of hardcore geeks who resembled The X-Files Lone Gunmen; and industry personalities including Tuanz Ernie Newman and Telecom chief executive Paul Reynolds.
Not you was it?

I was aiming for casual dressed onlooker. I was sitting behind Paul Reynolds.

Telecom have backed down and agreed to fit filters for Vodafone's benefit as well as NZC.
Vodafone have agreed to drop the lawsuit.

Quite a good interview with the visiting Alcatel-Lucent boss, written by someone who seems to know very little about 4G:

All the info I've come across leads me to believe that Telecom will one day announce a move to WiMax. Perhaps Philippe Keryer thinks the same thing as he made it very clear that he thinks LTE is the best way forward.

And now Telecom
finally announces plans to rollout LTE with Alcatel-Lucent. Big sigh of relief!
We'll still have competition in NZ's mobile phone market for some time yet.

Thank god.
Choosing the other route was setting themselves up for failure just like with their CDMA network. I'll read the link later. Gotta go out now.

Try and tell me that these aren't great deals:
I like the whole top up bonus on prepay, and the data deals look decent too. I smell a network operator change.
