Just a little info for those interested.
FTTN has it's own issues and is only a stop gap, some of the issues of FTTN have been highlighted in the UK's attempt at FTTN.
FTTN will still need to be upgraded again in the near term, making it a false economy to do the same job twice.
The UK's version of FTTN cannot be upgraded to FTTH, so any upgrade would be starting from scratch.

Real life story, a receptionist for a company in Texas mans the reception desk from home due to having access to a decent communications network in that area. No traveling to work, don't even need to live in the same state to work, she even enjoys a cuppa with work mates during a break, all from the comfort of her own home. (Next World-Discovery Channel)

To put the current Australian argument into perspective, fibre optic networks can theoretically run at up to 14 terabits per second (that’s 14000 gigabits, or 14000 times faster than the newly claimed maximum speed of 1Gb for the NBN).
Here are some links to a very small sample of some of the many things the NBN will help allow to become mainstream.
