Couldn't agree more.

"NTL are trailing in the shadows at the moment" - to pie in the sky minority products like this, maybe - but few want it, even less will get it. I don't think ntl are going to worry about it.
Indeed NTL can offer 3Mb to any home on net. Telewest is now offering 4Mb to any home on net (I think).

BT Broadband will now run at 2 Meg. If phone lines won't support the new higher rates, then BT says it will "offer the best speed available for your line".

So not much of a guarantee there then. This new company will be using the same copper last mile or 7 which is where the limitation of ADSL lies.
