100 BLOODCLART MEG (yes still behind other countries, but still thats sick, giganews will get battered)
when the virgin dude came the other week he said hold on for a bit because they are gonna double everybodys speed because they are gonna use 10mbit lines just for TIVO boxes.
some ISP's are barley hitting 10mb for the internet browsing nevermind a TV box
Got an email from virgin this morning saying they are upgrading me to 100mb then they send me another email saying we didn't mean to send you that email, kmt

Mr. Gayle
Only certain areas can get 100 with BT, its not fully Fibre remember, so part of it is dependant on exchange.

bt have Fibre to the cabinet, which is 40mb atm (going up to 80 next month) from cab to home is copper
they also have 110mb FTTP which is fibre straight to the home, no copper involved, has potential to go up to 1gb, this is only for 25% of the uk atm
Virgin is fttn or something, has a next cable from the cabinet.

1 Gbps, it would get bottle-necked by USB hard drives at 480 Mbps.
