So despite the governments and rival telcos best efforts we are to leave the ranks of Somalia, Sierra Leon, Niger (the three other countries in the world with two telco operators) and get our third telco .

You can sign up for a free simcard and credit here if you wan't to try their services: http://www.2degreesmobile.co.nz/JoinTheChinwag/

So what do we think? Can't hurt to try can it?

Yeah but are still operating phones/tariffs in the NZ market, even if Telstra are currently using the obsolete Telecom service and moving onto the Vodafone 3G they still can provide you with a contract/PAYG phone....

Mobile Virtual Network Operator - a telco who rents frequency and physical network from network owner. Such as Telstra does in NZ.

I guess the OP was implying that you need more towers and frequencies to really get price competition going. With only 2 physical networks a duopoly effectively exists.
