This resolution noted that "if Meucci had been able to pay the $10 fee to maintain the caveat after 1874, no patent could have been issued to Bell"
I would imagine they will charge a price to compete against VM's 50mb when it's finally available

Check to see if there is a grid in the gutter outside your house.

Re: 100mbps for Bournemouth
What i find comical is VM are upgrading to 50mb downstream....and exactly what are they goin to do with there upstream, most likely the same as what happened when they upgraded to 20mb....give us an extra 40kb/s LOL......The chances of gettin a true 100mb or even 50mb connection is ZILCH!!

Re: 100mbps for Bournemouth
Just got in from work, there was a case at one of our sites today, the internet connection was slow... Tested, got 6,5MB/s throughput (Thats about 52Mbps).

Talk about greedy
Uploads were peaking at 30Mbps.
