Bad wording. I should have said "minimum offered download speeds", although that
could be incorrect if we also consider "shaping". In which case, 1kbps could be
considered "minimum". Depends on how much they can ratchet it down to.

Whatever you get the point. It's not broadband, not even under Telstra's
"definition" of the term.
