Hugh,

I can't find that quote, but Telecom has said time after time that they are
going to spin off their Internet and mobile businesses - in fact I think it
was over a year ago when Roderick Deane first mentioned the possibility.

Yet nothing happens.

And meanwhile the juggernaut that is Telstra and the wily ISP's like Ihug
are running circles around TEL.

Don't get me wrong, I think they are a great business and as you say they
have real revenues and real profits - but they have to stop talking the talk
and start walking the walk!

Best Regards,

Benjamin Dutton
