I can confirm that the Gigabyte Gigabit Gigabit Internet service, which launched in Australia in March, has been working quite well for me.
I’ve only been able to access about 50% of the content I’d like to download, but that’s about the same as the average American consumer.
Gigabit speeds aren’t quite the same for everyone, but it’s nice to know that if you want to be able to download and watch HD movies, or browse the web, you’ll be able.
It’s a bit of a surprise, then, that Gigabyte doesn’t offer any other services in Australia, which I’ve heard about in the US and elsewhere, but I can’t confirm that’s the case.
Gigabyte Australia has a few other Australian products available, including a small data plan, which is also available in the United States.
The Australian broadband company has launched its own mobile phone service, and while it has not been widely available in Australia (as of yet), it’s a pretty good option for those who want a phone to use when travelling.
