We were certainly forecasting a difficult period for Telstra but this is slightly worse than what we were expecting.
Scott Marshall
It is disturbing that Telstra still has not offered the particular ADSL (asymmetric digital subscriber line) broadband technology that was requested by wholesale customers more than a year ago.
Allan Fels
Times will change, but not in 2006. It's not so easy for phone companies like Telstra to make money like they used to. They're a hard sell to investors.
Hans Kunnen
You say you're going to start downsizing, you lose your good people first. And that's what will happen to Telstra.
Paul Broad
With this bleak outlook and this share price, it's going to be extremely difficult for the government to sell. Telstra would obviously like less regulation, but that's something which is out of its hands.
Craig Young
There appears to have been a number of discussions held between Telstra and the Government which really should have been made public.

If nothing [regulatory] changes then Telstra will continue to have significant problems.
Scott Marshall
This approach will deliver high speed broadband services to more Australians, more quickly, than if the new network was a Telstra monopoly.
David Tudehope
Mobile phone prices are only going one direction, and that's down. Telstra faces a lot more competition in the wireless market, so the margins are nowhere near as impressive as those for fixed-line.
Charlie Lanchester
I think what it says is that Telstra Stadium is out of sight, out of mind.
Nick Pappas
The regulatory outcomes are going affect not only Telstra, but it is going to have a knock-on affect into the rest of the telecommunications industry.
David Land
We would anticipate that any recommendation below $30 will meet vociferous legal action by Telstra.
Tim Smeallie
On our network, we can provide much faster data speed than you can provide on the Telstra network. The proposition we're announcing puts us right into the heartland of broadband growth and customer needs in the Australian marketplace.
Warren Hardy
Telstra seems to be favoring its own retail business while continuing to delay services needed by its wholesale customers to enable them to compete with Telstra's retail business.

Helen Coonan
It's going to be a pretty hard task to sell when the future of the most profitable part of Telstra is so uncertain and risky. Its main business is in decline, and the downside is hard to ascertain.
Craig Young
The financial trends at Telstra are not good. We've got a cost structure we can't afford.
Sol Trujillo
Telstra has been able to maintain very high margins in its traditional market.
Paul Budde
The Prime Minister's comments have been unhelpful. He has no more right to call for the Telstra directors to talk up the interests of the company than the Telstra board has a right to talk down the interests of the company. The directors must tell it as they see it. If they are subsequently found to be misleading the market, they will be held accountable.
John Curry

John Curry
The reality is Suncorp holds 52,000 and Telstra holds 82,000. The commercial reality is unless the Queensland Government is willing to put in a lot of money to make it happen, it can't happen.
Shane Richardson
Together these companies are bigger than Telstra so they could easily build their own private network.
Liz Jurman
We are carefully considering the material before us and expect to determine in a matter of weeks whether or not we will issue a competition notice to Telstra.
Graeme Samuel
Clearly, it's the industry conditions and the regulatory environment that's damaging the pricing for the Telstra sale.
Rob Patterson
Telstra acted completely appropriately and within the law, and will vigorously defend any subsequent action by the ACCC. Critics who argue they can't make a profit on this product risk deliberately misleading the public.
Tony Warren
We're finding now, particularly some Telstra and some Optus people out there in the market.
Paul Broad
Investors are very cautious about PCCW, they want more news on Telstra. But I think the stock will hold at current levels for the time being.
