Well there's a week left in May and Cambridge and Middlesbrough are still to be upgraded. So don't expect it to be upgraded any time in the beginning of June.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
*giggles*
Was just checking out the traffic management page, are VM really serious about that?
4Mbit/s: 800MB Download, 350MB Upload
10Mbit/s: 800MB Download, 400MB Upload
As a recently re-incarnated L user, I hope they're not :/
