EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

ispOne has become the latest firm to ink an ADSL2+ wholesale agreement with Telstra.

The company believes the agreement will give the 150 or so ISPs that it counts as customers a chance to grow their business and margins as well, given most service regional areas.

One thing that didn't make the cut for the article itself is that ispOne believes there's 'plenty of opportunity' to sell ADSL2+ in 2009 - particularly to allow consumers to access rich content apps like iView.

Their ISP customers will surely like the sound of that.
