The ADSL product is up and rollout is mostly complete as far as I know.

Also don't forget who supplies Virgin.net's ADSL connectivity.

As far as cheap and cheerful goes, hey if it delivers the service I certainly won't going to complain. Rolling out HFC to that sort of area costs a hell of a lot more than 65 million quid.

Cabling your average city can comfortably cost more than that when you take into account the major cost, civil engineering.

If it delivers a good service to those who take it up, who are we really to complain about how that service is delivered. If Simon Duffy is announced its' release to the FT that pretty much says that the money is allocated and waiting to be spent.

Fair play really, don't see what the issue is.
