"For homeowners, the H5G package is expected to cost £399 per month including VAT"

I'd question how many home owners can justify that kind of expenditure. I have yet to feel the need for 80mb FTTC. My 40mb keeps our family of four happy.

I really hope ISP's start switching to advertising how low latency their networks are or that they support the next generation of IPv6.

I'm not sure how many pilot areas there are, but one is in the north of my district, it'll feels odd to walk amongst people who have a 5Gbps network connection
