How well do you feel that this has worked? I was under the impression that telecom prices in New Zealand were pretty painfully expensive?

NZ used to have expensive and slow internet (we don't have much TV cable here, so it was all ADSL), but it's gotten a lot better in the last few years. Currently I have 1000mbit down / 500mbit up fiber with unlimited data for $130nz/month (90usd).

The model does work pretty well.

Two islands, actually. More than 30 if you count all the outlying ones.
