Price vs speed & download limit. Plus we have friends on iiNet. A colleague 
at work had internode until he moved recently, and he had no problems with 
them. But last time I checked their website, I didn't see a plan that 
offered as much as iiNet offer for their 6gig/6gig plan. And no, their 
'unlimited' plan doesn't interest me. As far as that's concerned I may as 
well stay with Optus.

The idea is, you let some of your friends hook up first and then ask them 
4-5 months later what they think of their ISP. You'll soon find out if it's 
a lemon.
