    The headline is a lie
    with the fixed broadband penetration rate reaching 21.9 percent.
    actually IN above piece.

    It's Mobile Internet, it's down to 50kbps. Of course the Dialup (AKA Narrowband = up to consistant 128k ISDN! or 49kbps on 1km analogue line) is down. €26 a month line rental is more than the basic Mobile Internet charge. A no-brainer really.
