Price is NOT everything, Your Australian Austel Courier (that is SO CHEAP)

is 5 flash rom upgrades behind the Domestic model that we are talking

about above.  Many more features available than the Austel model also.



The last SDL available for the Austel model is dated Nov last year.

The last SDL available for Marks is 2 weeks old (0920sdl.exe)

Available in NSW and QLD on BBS's and the internet

To have a Courier that is now only two weeks old

is alone worth the $15 difference.



Mark DID get a bargain
