i was amazed recently when i went back to fiji how much phone reception there was on the islands. THeres phone towers everywhere there now. The kadavu group has new towers and my mate who lives on Ono and has sat dishs, solar power etc now has cell receptions. theyve put cell towers even on Ono that doesnt even have roads.
Surely itd be the same in noumea now?

This website has a few options. The Fleetbroadband (as mentioned above) 432Kps seems good considering they say the global coverage is near 100%. You could definitely surf the net with that.

Ouch, $14,000USD for 3GB though.

I would love to hear from someone whos actually used it.
