    Directly quoted from http://www.chorus.ie/broadband.html:

    Chorus broadband Internet access is the most effective way to ‘unleash’ the full potential of the web.

    Your business is likely to have experienced slow access speeds, connections that ‘time out’ and frankly content that takes too long to download.

    When you’re in a Chorus broadband environment, the Internet delivers what it promises. Suddenly inter-office and remote staff communication becomes a reality. Rich media documents and projects can be used collaboratively - incorporating video and audio.

    Chorus begins implementing broadband access in Dublin in October. And it won’t be long before many more areas see the benefits of a Chorus broadband service.

    Chorus is bringing the future of the Internet to Ireland through www.PORTAL NAME.ie, Chorus’ portal of all things broadband.

    For further information on Chorus broadband service, contact 1890 XXX XXX or email business@chorus.ie

    www.PORTAL NAME.ie ... ??? oh dear!

    Oh ... and my phone doesn't have the number X. :p

    Extreme waffle, eh? Hope we don't get too used to it...

    It's not a misprint, - it's an unfinished article where they have yet to PUT IN the portal name... same with the phone number.

    Anyone know whether there are any marketing jobs opening at Chorus? I took marketing as a module in college, and I heard they pay quite well... ;)

    In fact, I've been told that they pay so well that there isn't any money left for actually providing a service.
