Hutchison have a huge powerbase in their European opeation, it is quite likely that Hutchison will succeed in breaking into the Australia market (most would argue that it already has). Just as Cable & Wireless Optus managed to attract huge number of customers who at the time would normally have chosen the then Telecom Australia.

Some people never believed electricity would "catch on", yet we still have telegraph poles running along almost every street. I personally find 10 metre high poles at 100m intervals far less attractive than a communications tower every 3000 metres.

we agree that power poles and wires are a huge blight on the landscape. so many others including many councils agree, that there is a growing movement to put them underground. Why would we want to repeat the same mistake with the proliferation of mobile phone towers??
