eke!

Im very happy with BE* not sure about being part of Sky though.  If Sky do take them over, it will only be a matter of time before the networks are converged, just like they did with the UKO users. :(

Sky LLU is great, no traffic shaping or restrictions of any kind  :)

I just happened to check out the O2 website and can see that they are offering 6 months free broadband on the All Rounder and Works packages also I spotted a bundle of XBox games so they must be getting desperate to try and limit the churn rate !
