As Onno has previously commented, there are no statistics concerning
broadband use by WAMUG members so I am volunteering to conduct a
survey of such usage.
It would be appreciated if broadband users could advise (to me direct

great idea. But also, perhaps include those who would like to be on
broadband, but cannot because of non-accessibility to an exchange etc?
