So possibly by the end of the year, early next, we might just, just, have a 100MB service with multiple HDTV streams with oodles of space left for internet downloading to look forward to....waking up from dream But, as said, what about those caps? No point having a 100MB connection if you can only download a "meesly" 75 Gigs. A day's worth of HDTV shows would use the current allowance, so I've been told....
I agree that switching off analogue will free up bandwidth, but I'm not sure if you are being optimistic on the timescale. There are still areas of NTL that can only get analogue, for example - I guess that will have to be addressed, first?

So while I am excited at the potential for our future services, I am not expecting much to happen, any time soon.
