I want to move to Bournemouth now. £9.99pm for 100Mb/s is a bargain

[Taiko]

[Gerrard]

Well, if my parents are eligible for this, I might have to visit them more often!

Why would broadband speed matter at a LAN ?

[Hicks12]

Crap your right, i meant a local lan section I.E we can setup multiple houses in this area and all use a 1Gb/s connection to make it effectively, a lan for the whole town .

Wonder if it will stretch to the beach ...

Live in Bournemouth and considering the standard BT lines only give 1.5Kbps as standard on ADSL we deserve everything we are going to get.

They are touting excellent progress in conversions but aren't going overboard advertising it at the moment so I guess we will still be waiting several months before we even get a sniff of it in some areas.......ah well, back to the crap download speeds, crappy gaming and the blue loading bar for web pages.......yes, you must remember those....they still exist here!!:

Those 'linux distros' will download in mere seconds now, other uses? ummm, can't quite work out why many folks would want this! (then again, for a tenner...!)

From the comments section of the article:
"...in other news, a rapid rise of NSFW content in Bournemouth is predicted by Top analysts."

Have you considered upgrading to dial-up?

OUCH!!, now that's not nice

Only recently moved down here from Bedford area where I was getting 6Kbps so it feels like I have gone back to the Stoneage

I think you mean Mbps...

Virgin Media are going to offer 100mbit 'by the end of 2010' so all is not lost for the rest of us (the ones who can get cable anyway)
