Hi there
i see no one told you a price.It's very expensive compared to theUK,and a lot of areas have very mediocre speeds,we pay $70 for virtually unlimited use,but speed is 1.5 meg.(Telstra)
There is far more breakdowns also because they have an overhead sysytem with telecom and electricity.
I think the price will eventually come down,but who knows when....nothing gets done over here in a hurry.
Cheers
Penny
