oh a rather random note i might be coming to australia in february for school... im thinking melbourne (if there arent a lot of applicants from here). so, any advice/tips/info on stuff? is broadband readily available down there? also, im told the job market sucks and i have basically no chance of finding a part time job
any thoughts would be appreciated ^_^ |

broadband here is pretty sucky :)
u can get adsl most places, netspace adsl is pretty good at $99AUD or something, which since your from the us translates to around $54USD i think?
every isp is capped with dl/upload limit here.. :(
and yes, the job market sucks :) |

| hey cheggy |
It's pretty hard to get into Australia these days. Your best bet is to find someone in the Indonesia region with a good boat. It will cost a few hundred dollars from there, then you treck inland on foot through western Australia.
This seems to be the standard method lately |
