Tis true, BT say I can't have broadband in the forseeable future. I'm about 5km too far from the exchange to get it and they haven't got any plans to stretch the service any further until new technology makes it viable.

Still, I have ISDN to keep me going, but it's not going to be much good when Xbox Live comes along, is it? hmph!

AND I got the wrong game from SR. Not complaining though, it was my fault for changing my mind so late. I don't mind anyway, it's free!

Still, got Medal of Honour today.

We used to have ISDN, not sure what its performance is though. I've now just got 56k, which I'm guessing is worse.

Unlucky though mate, I'm hoping to get Broadband at some point but (apparently) we're all strapped for cash at the mo.

Im 10m (yes metres) from my exchange, but i live in a relatively small village, so i can't see them ever upgrading the exchange.
