Not sure Enz.......its being rolled out across NI.....neighbour got it before Xmas, the local "cabinet" has a 100 connection capacity ( FOC from exchange to it, then about 200 metres to our place)..............ok...a bit dearer....but much better!

Just checked mine, not available or due to be rolled out in my area...
never mind, I get a good deal with o2 at the moment, pay 7.50 a month, unlimited, and get download speed of around 2.5 - 3.0
