I'm unsure what your point is.

I think his point was that it is currently being installed in only seven exchanges. You pointed out that it took NTL years to install cable modems, which, in fairness to NTL is a far larger job. You are comparing this job against the installation of hardware in a few exchanges.

Maybe it's fairer to compare UKOnline to NTL's recent speed upgrades, the bulk of which (ie most of the country, not just a few exchanges) were done 6 months after NTL announced they were starting them.
