Oh for a broadband connection! Last year Telstra laid a fibre-optic cable connecting the Torres Strait island community of Thursday Island and the rest of Australia. It passes right outside our front gate, and there is even a junction pit there. Can we now get connected? A resounding 'No!' was the answer.

Consider Telstra's claim that 98% of Australia will soon have access to broadband. There are around 20 million people in Oz, so 2% of that is 400,000. The estimated resident population in 2006 of Cape York (an area as large as the state of Victoria) including all the indigenous communities of Cape York and the Torres Strait, is less than 18,000.

So where does that leave us? Without broadband, of course! Do I feel a little cheated? Absolutely, along with most people living in remote areas. These people are already disadvantaged, and could get great benefit from a broadband connection.

Excuse me while I spit some more chips!
