Springfield Lakes
"The Lakes"
If you live on the other side of the lake there is no ADSL internet you have to have wireless which is really expensive if you have kids, the park near the lake is always noisy , late night drunks etc , getting to work if using the Centenary Hwy allow an extra 30 min of a morning as the traffic banks backs from the Motorway exit back to the roundabout at McDonald's at 650 am to 740am week days, Trian is not coming until 2013 it at all

Jamie, wireless can be expensive, but there are a few cheaper options around. Don't buy 3G-based wireless - it's either slow (congested network) or, as you've said, expensive. There are two non-3G operators in the area, check them out on Whirlpool (search for Springfield Lakes). They're cheaper than 3G - certainly if you want more than 6GB/month.
And there is ADSL everywhere - on the Greenbank side, it's pretty decent, on the Delfin side, not so good. The problem isn't that it's not there, it's that there's only 50% coverage provided by the network builder (starts with Tel...). People buying a house in the area which is already connected (again, about 50% of them) will be able to get it.
