Bert Newton grimaces and bears through the ordeal of what the other 70% of Good Morning Australia happens to fill. Flogging the new messaging system for Australia's monopoly board owners, Telstra. The flyer sent out to most homes was the kind of thing that warns people of the encroaching pizza sales in the area. Initially, and perhaps ultimately, the home messaging is simple, bare and not the thing for businesses, impersonal. Residential could be the test run before they start adding a feature to the free service and start charging the businesses they warn against relying on it.

72 hours is the time between first clicking it on and having it run. The dial tone ended up stuttering after a rather lengthy session. A message was waiting in the banks. Records the day and time, not bad, but the message was near pointless.
