    Eircom called me at home tonight, to try and get me to "come back to eircom".

    LOL they called about phone calls... I talked about the NET for 20 minutes!

    The guy confirmed for me that BALBRIGGAN, North Co Dublin has been upgraded for ADSL :D:D:D

    He also mentioned ASHBOURNE (i think he was from there).

    He thinks they should be good to go by February!

    I live in hope.....

    Yellum reckons i should be Skeptical :cool:

    Hmmm, I really have mixed feeling about ADSL.

    As much as I am happy for you guys that you at last have at least something I am a little afraid that you'll be happy with the bits and pieces that Eircom threw at you.
    So please do us a favour and stay with us and let us go on battling for affordable internet access for all internet-users in Ireland.

    Thanks,

    Disconnected, the point has been brought up before but remember that even if the dsl users get all comfy with the service, were still going to have to pay 100 notes a month come the launch. If thats not incentive to keep the fight going, i dont know what is:)

    On a more personal note, i live in a rented appartment. When it comes time to move out, I want to be moving in a climate where i can get flat rate dialup untill my dsl or cable modem is installed (hey, why stop there, i want my fibre link ready for me in my new house;) )

    Glad someone else is in the same boat!
    My lease is actually up in mid-February, so the trial is perfect for me, but I'm not going to move in to somewhere unless it has ADSL capabilities. The awful thing is, with ADSL in; I'd almost renew the lease, were it not for the fact that myself and my girlfriend are completely sick of not being able to swing the proverbial cat!
