Yes Ive heard that a couple of ISPs have it in a handfull of exchanges. Sadly Wallsend aint one of them and worse, my ISP has no plans at all to bring it to Newcastle
The battle for people to get ADSL2+ is just like the battle for folks to get ANY kind of broadband, the only way to fix this is for Telstra to get off its rear end and enable ALL of Australia to ADSL2+
What really irks me is that ISPs can provide their own ADSL gear and connect customers to it for LESS then those of us stuck on Telstra exchanges.
