And the real kicker is ... It will be even more obsolete by the time it's
installed and they'll probably be hunting around for a replacement even before
the FTTN network is complete.
What an utter waste of money. These people have no concept of building for the

And all for only 2/3 the cost of 1GBs or better fibre to the home. The business
case for this technological millstone around the nation's neck will make
terrific reading.
