Comment Broadband Prices in Ireland (Score 1) 843
Despite promises from Government to make Ireland into a "digital hub" and the fact that 25% of the bandwidth which comes into western Europe comes through here, Broadband penetration is low, mostly due to the incumbent telecom, Eircom being a bit of a monopolist dinosaur.
Things are changing though, as alternative infrastructure is in place and wireless is spreading fast. Prices are still exorbitant but expected to fall soon.
