I'm not jealous. Just because mine is 19kb at best on Tiscali. NTL can't be
bothered to lay the cable up the hill to my street. If I was out in some
remote village on the outskirts of Glasgow, for instance, then I might
understand why they haven't got around to it yet. But a hundred yards up the
hill? That's taking the proverbrial.

that's a good question Andrew. the website told me, after I submited my
post code, that, I'll be waiting until september for it. Now it seems my
downloading if faster than usual. I've given it a test on downloading
random files on the net and the download kb per sec is as high as 39 kb!
amazing lol.
here's some info on the ntl website. that's how I knew about this just
before I found myself upgraded.

that's should ellaborate a bit.
