I'll give them until the end of this year, then I'm going to exercise my consumer power and get ADSL.

Also, whilst not that important, I'd like to be able to 'press the red button' at some point. So maybe I'll change to Sky as well.

rippedoff - I'm in Southwark - and like Lambeth we don't get broadband or interactive TV. I am led to believe there are some broadband triallists in the area, but as I understand it the problem is that the network is a patchy mix off good and bad quality coaxial cable under the streets, which is pretty expensive to rewire.

See this thread on NTHW.com if you havn't already (though it might be gone tomorrow - July 1st - when NTHW.com dies).
