  1. Re:D'oh on UK ISP Imposes Download Limits · · Score: 1

    As an NTL customer I had to enter into a 12 month contract for this service. At the time i joined, it was advertised as Unlimited internet access 24/7. They even had an ad campaign here in the UK encouraging people that they could try and break their Cable modems by leaving them on 24/7!.

    I realise that in the TOS there is small print saying that they are free to change the terms of the service but this 1GB cap isn't a change, this is a reduction in service by 90% (max d/l ~ 15GB at 120KB/s).

    Does this mean that i now have a legit case to break my contract should they come knocking ?

  2. Re:I wish I had thought of that... on Build Your Own LCD Bus Schedule · · Score: 1

    We have the same thing in Brighton, UK. I was wondering how the information is passed to the LCD displays at the bus stops when i saw that the display mountings have huge aerials on them. It could be that they pick up a radio frequency sent from a central control centre. any ideas???
