also i for one, care more about a reliable ISP thats been around and steady in the market for quite sometime rather than someone no one has heard of before that will probably go bust within 12months.

If the nations larges telco think unlimited broadband is not feasible in australia, what makes you think a small ISP can do it? Just take a look at what happened to iinet - the same will happen to ion. the leachers will move over to it, the speed will slow to a total crawl and they wont be able to afford the bandwidth upgrades - so they will cap their plans.

I'm not biased its just common sense. But by all means Porky, move over and try them out.

exactly. initally they may offer unlimited, to drawn in users then change it to something that will unlikely be as good as one of the better established ISPs . and someone will be stuck in a contract until its over.
