    The Forfás annual report, released today

    see this bit here

    http://www.forfas.ie/publications/forfas_annrpt05/platforms/broadband.asp
    At the end of Q2 2005, Ireland ranked 25th of 32 countries for broadband take-up. When the comparator group is limited to the 21 countries benchmarked in the 2004 study, Ireland's position had actually deteriorated, from 18th out of 21 in 2004 to 19th out of 21 in 2005.

    and they crunched the DSL coverage figures WRT population instead of listening to Comreg/Eircom/Noel but DID NOT factor in the failure rate. This should have been 60% max lads !!!!!!
    Notwithstanding significant improvements in DSL availability in Ireland since its launch in 2002, DSL coverage in Ireland based on population stood at 72 percent, making it the second lowest of the EU15 countries.

    What does 60% (maybe as much as 65% today) make us then , last or second last .....anybody speak Greek ?????
