I don't know about the ADSL plans or BigPuddle Home plans, but I'm 
assuming they're the same - with the BigPuddle Direct dial-up links all 
traffic to the cache is charged the same (lower) rate regardless of 
whether its a hit or a miss. You just point your web browser or local 
cache to the Telstra cache. All other traffic (email, IRC, etc) gets 
charged at the normal rate.

Because of this, they don't tell us what our hit/miss rate with the 
cache was.

Conrad.
