Finally made a decision on this - spoke to Fintan (dbTwang co-founder) who has a large client in Kilkenny who uses BT for broadband and he is happy with them - says their business support is much better than their domestic.
So placed the order today and should have it within 2 weeks. With any luck it will be stable and I will have 24Mb (in reality about 19mb according to the boards.ie discussions) for the price of what is currently 3mb from Eircom.
Do I need this - not particularly at present. Do I have anything in mind for it? No. But it will be interesting to see how my use and consumption of the internet changes.

Hi Keith,
if only the Government had seen fit to take the same attitude when first building the M50.
Of course, there's also Parkinson's Law at play - work will expand to fill the available time - or bandwidth in this case.

@ Lars. I would love to think that there was a chance of that happening (Government and BB). Maybe someday :-(
