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

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.

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.
