Join IHUG!! :) Actually I was quoting a general rate of $5 across NZ access providers...not Southern's rates. Southern has variable traffic rates below $5 and also offer a lot of other alternative services in addition to traffic. They are arguably the best deal in town...but of course it depends on what the individual's preferences and activities are. I read and post to a lot of newsgroups and Southern offers the newsfeed and all traffic for free within the montlhy access fee. I do not use the WWW web a lot except to find something specific so my non-News traffic is low. It's a question of horses for courses. |\ /| ___| \,,/_/ ---__/ \/ \ __ _ __--/ (D) \ / ('>- _ -/ (_ \ \__/ // / \_ / ==\ __------- L\_ ___--/ / \_ O o) / / \==/ / / || ) \_/\ || / _ / | | | /--______ ___\ /\ : | / __- - _/ ------ | | \ \ | - - / | | \ ) | | - | | ) | | | | | | | | | | | | < | | | |_/ < | /__\ < \ after /__\ /___\ -Jurcy- Bye,
