Glen,
Harry is looking for an 8m pole, your links are for smaller and I haven't found anything larger that isn't a flagpole (and not portable). Regardless, I've found a great supplier:

Mark Winney is the guy to speak to, tell him Bryan from Melbourne sent you. They don't do 8m poles, but they do 7m & 9m (as well as 3m, 5m &6m)
Currently only 3m & 6m are in stock, but the rest should arrive soon. They don't have a retailer in Melbourne but will freight them down.
For those in Melbourne, a friend suggested Regal Marine in Forrest Hills. We also use them to support portable HF antennas and that's where he's bought his from over the years. We're HAM radio operators, too.

Never happier than on a quiet pier, on a cold, dark, wet night, with a bucket to sit on, pole in hand and a fully charged iPod.
