I'll also add that of the mainstream ISP's (BT, SKY) VM are the only ones with STM.
BTW has anyone thought what will happen when BT and other rivals start offering FTTP?

ATM it is available "on demand" at a cost to providers of £1,500 for the first 500mts what terms they will come up with for users is unknown but as a guesstimate if they wanted to do free install you would be looking at >£35 pm and 18mth min contract.

On the plus side you would be looking at a rock solid 160Mbps down and 20Mbps up (potential to rise to 330/30).

As VM already have fibre "in place" and ducting to their customers they could respond but may/would have to move away from Docsis which would take investment.
