Probably not. BT invested a lot of money in the Far East and opened a Research and Development division there last September as well as a Technology and Service Centre in Dalian. They've been recruiting from Beijing University and it seems that the bulk of the work done over there relates to software support and business customers.
It's easy to lose perspctive with BT especially as they present the warm and cosy image in theie TV adverts but they are a huge global company and BT Total Broadband is just a ****-ant little division that does even make that much money for them.
When you realise that they are clearly aiming to compete with the likes of AT&T and AOL then you begin to understand just how big a deal Webwise really is and how much money is involved in the long term.
They are the Daleks of the UKs ISPs and all we have is a sonic screwdriver but... you know the rest of the story.
