BBC NEWS | Technology | Broadband hits four million mark
Ofcom reports that there are now 4m Broadband users in the UK and that means 15% of all households. Not bad but overall no cigar.
ntl I know is braodly in line with that in its coverage areas although amongst its own customers penertration is much higher.
Interesting to note that. I suspect that if connection is simple and straightforward and a cheap connection and ongoing monthly rental is available people will adopt. They (and I to a certain extent) however, still need to be really convinced as to the advantages of Broadband, other than faster download times and always on.
The content and applications are not really here yet, even after all this time. This is where most focus needs to be concentrated. Although products such as ntl's Broadband Plus and presumably BT Yahoo are a start but not the end game.
