    Both Finland and Spain have now decided to add "broadband" to their universal service requirements. By 2011, any Finn or Spaniard, no matter where they live, should be able to get a reliable 1Mbps connection at a reasonable price.

    Shame we left out reliable innit :( Nice how the Finns will not accept contention based BS either . Peak speeds must not be less than 590k averaged over the peak no matter what the contention is , not your 5.9k Eamon , that is 590k .....capice ????
    Finland is also mandating that "the average speed of downstream traffic must be at least 75 per cent of the required speed in a measuring period of 24 hours. In a four-hour measuring period the speed must be at least 59 per cent of the required speed."
