Acquired by Chariot Limited (AAP/SMH, 11 May 2004): 'The new additions to Chariot's stable are Cairns-based Ledanet and Gold Coast-based Broadnet', following 'its acquisition of 12 ISPs in Australia over the past 18 months'. Chariot MD Robert Horlin-Smith said the bolt-on acquisitions pushed Chariot toward its 150,000-customer target. ledanet.com.au persisted as a Chariot netconnect mail domain (webmail dropdown, Mar 2005 portal capture). |
