    What's that in terms of percentage for total land mass of Oz and total
    populated area?

    A poofteenth, perhaps?

    Burgess also brown-eyed the Senate and Rudd. Parliamentarians get to obey
    Telstra now, and handover the $4.7bill, else have their parliamentary
    telephones disconnected.

    How could it not, when NextG covers 99.n% of the population and CDMA does
    98.n% of the population?

    As in, the differential?
    see below

    In any case the NextG total landmass is in the 10+ precentage, around 12 or
    15% I think, and the sq km difference is
    NextG - 2.0m sq km plus
    CDMA - 1.6m sq km

    So thats an extra 400,000sq km - not something to sneeze at

    also nextG will only grow. CDMA is dead.

    Nope, he's correct there. NextG _does_ cover more square km of Australia
    than CDMA did. It's just that it doesn't cover _all_ of the square km
    that CDMA did.

    Whether or not NG has more coverage than CDMA, I found out last weekend
    that it doesn't do it, region by region.

    Imagine this - Optus has better coverage in some rural areas (not regional
    or large country urban centres) than that of NextG.

    How embarrassing (for Telstra) is that???

    It must be stunted, then, in some areas. In NE Vic over the weekend I
    found that NextG coverage hasn't improved since I was last up that way a
    year ago. And in a couple of spots Optus coverage was better than NextG.
