re: optus signs with gilat. buys 2,500 vsat units Anyone who deals with Woolies will know that this deal will have been "to the bone" and probably more a marketing exersize than a profit maker. Woolies will have screwed MUL to the bone in a heated and costly tendering process then butt plugged them on a contract.

They are experts at it. These guy buy fruit and veg in the metric tonne so some broadband deal would have been a light snack in a competitive market.
