jus wondering whether anyone knows when it'll b possible to have an unlimited 1mb broadban with unlimited download for £14.99?!!! I know I'm super particular, but i think once that level of package is reached, people will go over to broadband in droves.

also, I wanna watch Premiership for nowt!!!!

I know in Japan they have fibre optic connection with crazy speeds of 100mb or someting... does anyone reckon that'll ever happen here?

LOL, you don't want much do you... O-Ha


I guess with the rate of progress on the technological front though, you'll have that kind of broadband price-point in a couple of years, but by then the 'Free' Premiership footy will cost you £60 a month!

Dunno when it'll happen here but in France (h++p://www.cegetel.fr/ amongst others) you can get up 8mbps (if the line will support it) for €15 per month - a little over £10 as we understand it.

Ripoff Britain?

2 Mbps £29.99 and unlimited downloads on AOL. I think all their packages are unlimited. Always get top speeds around 228kb/sec!!!!

Nildram are now offering 2Mb for £25.99. It's not unlimited but the cap is 50Gb. They usually come out very well for speed and service on adslguide.
