Cable is only available in a few of the major cities and a couple of regional towns. There is no cable in town here.

Similar happened here. The cable networks are much newer, built in the 1990s, and offering broadband by 2000.
MvV> But the cable companies still have a momopoly on their medium. The do MvV> not have to allow third parties on the cable and so they don't.
Until recently, it was the same here too. However, in a deal to roll out the new national network, I believe the cable networks are going to become part of the new network, meaning you should be able to get service from any ISP as the government owned company takes the cables over.
MvV> And now in some areas fiber is coming as a third physical medium. And MvV> to top it off there is 4G...
Here, fibre is part of the new NBN. mobile connectivity is a different issue. There's 3 major companies rolling out infrastructure there, and a heap of resellers.
