Faster? Well, its not moving any faster than the first time around. Cheaper? I dont see the dollar figures going down here. -------------------------------------- NBN Co expects to have reached a deal to resign its $11.2 billion definitive agreements with Telstra by the end of the year, with the network builder’s chief executive today revealing the two had reached material agreement on the new contract. The Coalition Government had originally promised to have the historic renegotiation complete by mid-2014, with Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull saying in February this year that the deal would be done “certainly by the middle of the year.” Telstra boss David Thodey recently said he expected the discussions to continue into 2015. The signing of the new contract will be vital for the Coalition’s rollout of its new multi-technology mix NBN, which replaces the former predominantly FTTP-approach with a mixture of network technologies - including a larger focus on fibre-to-the-node using Telstra’s infrastructure.
