As you say, Telewest technology is more advanced. Who's fault is that - must be someone in ntl put short term profit and directors bonuses ahead of long term infrastructure and viability.

Possibly yes, and in that situation obviously it will be looked at by our backers/directors. Although we know what the technology is the simple fact is that due to the large area we cover the cost of implimenting the technology is to big for the company to take on. If rumours are true then I would expect a merger between the two companies within the next couple of years, maybe then we will see some sensible action taken to make sure the point you have made doesn't become reality.
