Thanks for those interesting responses.  However I wonder what the average 
non-technical householder is expecting and what they'll do, particularly if an 
FTTN connection requires existing POTS wiring to be isolated from the VDSL2 
signal cable and NBN Co. don't do the work at installation time.

As far as voice goes, my guess is that many people will abandon their wired 'phones 
altogether in favour of their mobile, which would be nice for Telstra, Optus & 
Vodaphone.

And I've never missed not having a mobile phone.

I'm with Roger there, though I do have a mobile for occasional & emergency use. 
 I find mobile sound quality is OK for short conversations but not for longer ones, 
they're relatively expensive to run, and I'm not convinced EM radiation isn't a 
problem.
