Gentlefolk,

Now I wonder who could possibly have made that deduction after the fiasco with the PAC ?

Hi Walter

I was wondering if you'd missed the post I put up here ..... http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php/topic,12993.0.html ..... I was hoping for your response, above all others TBH ??.

Sorry BS,

I'm not too interested in BT claptrap / propaganda. Once BT stop "passing houses" instead of entering them and once they give up the idea of "having access" to the total number of lines in the cabinet when none of the FTTC can get anywhere near the capacity of even one line per house. Perhaps BT realise that their VDSL implementation just can't provide a totally satisfactory solution for every house, whether the occupiers want to fork out for "free sport" or not.

At least one MEP has woken up to reality so maybe there's a tiny crumb of comfort there and possibly other "sheep" might learn to follow him.

Ha ha ..... one man's propaganda is another man's ..... and all that.

Surely it's only fair for folk to see both sides of the 'Claptrap', and the truth is, nobody else can or is willing to fund the UK rural broadband project. The PAC (whilst useful in many other missions), have failed dramatically with their accusations in this instance. Due, in no small part to the info gleaned.

Read the statement from Liv again, Walter, they are truths not 'spin'. Nobody else wants to touch BDUK with a bargepole, as it's far from a great business model. Fact.


Regards

@ BS

My opinion is that nobody else want's to touch the PSTN with the "wrong technology" and "One of the worst decisions mankind has made"; even if they did you know who would stop them dead.

Kind regards,
Walter

Then, if your thoughts are correct, what the heck are they doing, putting in initial bids before dropping out when it comes down to having to invest some of their own money into BDUK That just seems like a total waste of everybody's time, theirs included ??

I'm afraid (in my opinion), the reality of the situation is exactly as Liv has stated. No bullying, no intended monopoly ............ just pure and simple facts.
