Looks like “Broadband
Britain”
is finally on the way, though I’d argue that this is the
“Ferrari”
with 2Mb ADSL already available, albeit at a price.
Let’s hope that in addition to
the
recent BT price cuts we also see increases in bandwidth across the board.
One interesting
thing I read on ADSLguide last week, is that because take up of ADSL has
been
so low, none of the exchanges currently operating have contention ratios in
place.
Tim.

Stephen Carter, Managing Director at ntl:home,

announced pricing details for the cable operator's new 1mbps broadband
internet

The confirmation of a so-called 'gold' tier of broadband internet on cable

the
company revealed that the service will be priced at £49.99 per month for
digital cable subscribers, and £59.99 per month for new subscribers.
Carter explained: "This is the Ferrari of fast internet access. It is
simply the best internet service now available to homes in the
UK."
The service goes live on Monday, March 11. Existing customers wishing to
register in advance should call 0800 052 2000.
