Folks in the UK are extremely blessed to have telecoms giant BT working on providing up to 40% of the UK population fiber optic broadband by 2010 – that totals to 10 million connections. They’re currently in negotiations over pricing with third-party suppliers, and we hope that they can come to an agreement pretty soon. If you happen to have a postcode that falls under the jurisdiction of London, Manchester, Cardiff and Edinburgh, then you’ll whoop with joy knowing that the virtual beta testing programme will begin sometime next year, bringing happiness to up to half a million homes.
