Optus iPhone – slow data speeds and poor reception
“Optus users should be going to Optus and seeking some sort of compensation”
For those dismayed by the expected 3G data speeds with your new iPhone 3G, here could be the reason why.
Testing on mobile devices has found the poor performance only effects Apple’s iPhone. According to one independent testing report, the problem is worst on Optus’ network.
Some Optus customers are receiving “goodwill” credits.

[...] interesting move Optus, given the press their data speeds and reception has received of late [...]
Reception with iphone 3GS on Optus network inside my home is absolutely abysmal, but fine once I move outside.
Have never had this problem before.
It’s a disgrace.
Surely Optus can fix this?
Will they?
