Entry-level For BT Broadband Increased To 2Mb
BT have just announced that they will increase their entry-level product from 1Mb to 2Mb. I’m guessing that some people who are too far away from the exchange won’t get the upgrade.

Broadband wars - just Speed Vs Price?
The broadband war will soon intensify in the UK as LLU allows operators like Wanadoo, AOL and Tiscali to offer their own products with speeds in excess of 8Mb and with the cable operators also planning on trialling high-speed services.
However, for those users who have already been tempted to Bulldog’s 8Mb service it hasn’t been [...]

When other ISPs are trying to maintain access prices by bundling in more value, ntl seem to be fighting a price war without any apparent adversaries. ntl have just reduced the price of its 1Mb product to £9.99, apparently to match UKonline.
However, UKonline’s offer isn’t really a threat to major ISPs as it is [...]
