Fastest ever broadband soon to arrive in the UK

 print  e-mail 

Although the days of "dial up" are only just behind us, Internet access has evolved at a staggering rate over the past few years. The days when it seemed to take hours to download a single image are long gone (thank god!)

Happy as I am with my Wanadoo broadband (1mb) service in my home/office, I was interested to read that a 24Mb service could arrive in the UK "within weeks".

This new style service, which will be provided by "Be" (a Swedish outfit) is the first time UK punters will have had access to ADSL2 capabilities.

At 480 times the speed of my old favourite dial-up service, I'd be amazed if Be isn't an overnight success when it gains regulatory approval
