You're probably all going to have to sit down for this one - I'm about
to defend Telstra!  Maybe.

Has anyone actually run into this mysterious 3Gb download cap?  I keep
blowing 3Gb and haven't been hassled yet.  Even my frinds who are
topping 40Gb a month aren't being penalised.

Having said that I'll probably receive a bill tomorrow that bankrupts me
or something.

So while that spreadsheet is an accurate summary of the advertised
prices, Telstra seems to be doing something different in practise.
