I missed this, so I have read on here that telewest's network is apperently worse but at least they have the decency to use multiple channels for downstream. Is their a reason for ntl to not do this, it must be cheaper then a ubr reseg.
Lincoln uses 256 QAM AFAIK. I don't think its a case of rolling it out everywhere, I'm sure again there are tighter noise specs and some areas may just plain not need it.

Probably more of a money issue and that channel bonding being the future.
