Best Answer

Australia has 3 major mobile networks - Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone. All are 3G-GSM carriers.

Telstra has the biggest range, but is the most expensive. If you're going into rural areas, Telstra is your best bet.

Optus is a good compromise between range and price. They cover all of the cities, but there are many more gaps in coverage compared to Telstra's network.

Vodafone isn't really a major player, although their network is only slightly smaller than Optus's.

There is also Three and Virgin Mobile.
