I haven't seen any offerings by ISPs based on the 15Mbit upload speed product that OpenReach are discontinuing. There's a Google Docs spreadsheet detailing many FTTC offerings of the OpenReach products at: http://bit.ly/f3il0d
Any reason for 2 lines? also interesting about the fiber slots

Not sure if the 80mbps will be using a fatter profile (at which point it will be more variable) or bonded lines (at which point it won't, and 70%+ of people will get 76mbps+)
