"not" because "cannot" or "not" because "don't want"? One FTTC ISP has reported two successful trials of 20Mbit upload today. If 20Mbit upload becomes generally available to FTTC users within three months, for example, Virgin Media are going to look a little slow (offering a maximum of 50% of that, until 120:12Mbit is rolled out and then still 8Mbit slower). I will be interested to see if BT point this out when advertising their Infinity service later this year. VM might then feel compelled to do something, particularly as I suspect the forthcoming 120Mbit tariff is partially designed so VM can say "we offer the fastest download speeds in the UK".
