11-07-2002 1:17pm#1have a read of this article on BBC\SciTech
Currently most operators offer a standard 512K service for between £20 and £35 which gives users around 10 times faster speeds than dial-up access.
But cable operators NTL and Telewest have realised that there is a market for even faster broadband and both have launched a 1MB service for its customers.
HA! expensive??? is this a joke??It is more expensive.
Telewest's service is £39.99 per month, falling to £35.99 if users take other services from the cable firm. NTL charges even more - £49.99 per month.
"The speeds are wonderful, maybe £35 a month seems pricey, but we used to spend that on phone calls."

Yeah, I know exactly how you feel. When I see and hear all these things about how uncapped ADSL for £35 Sterling is considered "too expensive" by customers in the UK, I start banging my head off the wall screaming "COME OVER HERE THEN AND SEE HOW GOOD YOU ALL HAVE IT IN THE UK!!! COME OVER HERE!!! COME OVER HERE!!!!!"
Jesus, it's enough to drive you to drink!!! 0
