In japan, most of the cables are placed on poles, not underground. His argument still stands correct as far as Europe is concerned. |

1. Cable upload speeds still crap. I'm sitting on 10 meg down, 512k up and that's currently the best that Cable in the UK can offer.
2. Usenet access is crud too. Most relevant newsgroups are blocked. Sure you can get alt.obsessive-fan.jamiroquai.s**ks, but as for Usenet anyone actually reads, it's poor.
3. Gov't/BT (same bloody thing) have announced a lot but they rarely deliver. -- Why should the Israelis care about a brain-dead leader? Bush is in his second term! NO Bush NO Sinn Fein/IRA |

Your argument still doesn't hold any water, no matter how cute you try to be.  -- Why should the Israelis care about a brain-dead leader? Bush is in his second term! NO Bush NO Sinn Fein/IRA |
