I just don't get why in an area on very high density population of fairly affluent people there is no cable - its not just broadband but TV where Virgin would gain income

Also the IOD is a peninsular so surely you could lay cable on the Thames bank enabling all the riverside developments to be wired up

My development alone has over a 1000 people and many I know would sign up on virgin just to get away from 2MB/s

So multiply that up and there's definitely a market.

Also my building is prewired for cable! (There's a coax type cable with phone cable attached in my wall) so they would only have to wire to the building.

I realise this riverside idea would only help some people on the IOD but it seems a start to build from at least.

Just my $0.02
