And Australia will get that technology in.... The year 7211

Computer users who despair over slow internet connections should take heart - German scientists have broken a speed record, sending data contained on 700 DVDs over a single laser beam, in one second.
The scientists at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) said they had broken the world record by sending data at a speed of 26 terabits per second.
The data, sent over 50 kilometres on a single laser beam, was coded thanks to a system known as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) in which the laser beam is divided into separate colour streams.
"With 26 terabits per second, you can simultaneously transmit up to 400 million telephone calls per second," said Professor Juerg Leuthold of the institute in a statement.

Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.
This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
That's amazing.
Live super HD pron!!!!
That is all!!!

fukin wow!!
we will still be waiting for the NBN here when the rest of the world has this

NBN would work if done correctly. It wont right now due to the tards who are running the show who have a serious case of NFI of what the internet actually is.
Best example by ConJOB*cough*i mean Conroy = “There’s a staggering number of Australians being in having their computers infected at the moment, up to 20,000 — uh — can regularly be getting infected by these spams or scams, that come through the portal.”

The NBN will not be a failure because of the technology - it's fibre throughout, so can be upgraded to very high speeds later by merely changing the hardware at each end.
The NBN will fail because of the politics that surrounds it. It will be kept prohibitively expensive for city and suburban areas in order to get those subscribers to subsidise rollout and subscriptions in rural areas. This will prevent significant scale uptake, which will mean critical mass will not be reached. The vast majority of current residential customers aren't asking for higher speeds - they judge the value of their plan by it's usage cap, not it's line speed.
Even if wired competition is prohibited (which has been discussed), all that will do is hand the average city internet user's custom to the mobile networks - they will delight in undercutting regulated NBN pricing at the lower end of the scale, removing all the light and medium grade users.
What really needs to be done is the upgrade / replacement of all the RIM devices that infest Australia's more recently developed suburbs. They currently prevent people in suburban areas from getting ADSL at all (or restricting people to 1.5mbit or lower speeds, where ADSL is possible). People connected to these devices want the kind of service level of those who get a direct connection to the same exchange. And that doesn't just mean speed - it means getting a connection to non-telstra equipment so that they can get on the non-telstra pricing scales of the ISPs.
