I just received an interesting email from our (second) broadband provider, with the following information:
“100Mbps Internet connections We’ve just connected our first 100Mbps customer to our new Ethernet Direct Leased Line service.
This is dedicated fibre delivered direct to the premises. It is aimed primarily at business customers and is the new very cost-effective 21CN alternative to legacy 20CN leased line services.“
Obviously I clicked, and was delighted to see that I could get an immediate quotation. The results, however, were less reasonable than hoped for:
£16,524 a year ($25,700) for the cheapest package. Not including the incredible connection charge.
I’m all for speed, but that makes hotel internet access look cheap.
Why do I feel that the UK may not be ready for the broadband revolution?
