Telecom's new entry level plan - to be launched on April 2 - costs the same but has a 200 megabytes allowance and a download speed of 256 kilobits a second.

That's because
"TelstraClear HighSpeed Internet is only available as part of a package including a phone line or phone line and Digital TV on the HighSpeed 1G and 5G plans."

those plans are for telstras cable network, not avaliable through adsl, adsl plans are just as sucky as everyone else's.
going over the monthly allowance is costly as they don't throttle speed back, they just charge ya.I asked them why this was there policy as they own the network and therefore can do want they want

Costly?
$5 for 500meg doesn't seem that onerous.... or is it more on the adsl?
