The point is that many countries already have system much superior to what the LNP is going to give us.  I have a friend who lives in mountains in the Czech Republic (still rather poor country) and she has much better connection.  Many countries in South America will have a better system.  Another reason why we are a laughing stock around the world.

Not to mention that some possibly will not get that second rate broadband for another 6 years

DY I guess you did not watch the clip, which sounded like an ALP commercial.  On second thoughts  you probably did,  judging by the degree of partiality shown.

SN: "I have a friend who lives in mountains in the Czech Republic (still rather poor country) and she has much better connection." Better than what?. so do provide us with your technical data SN

According to the first quarter 2013 State of the Internet report from Akamai, global average Internet connection speeds grew to 3.1 Mbps, a 17 percent year-over-year gain.

In the U.S, the first quarter average broadband speed was 8.6 Mbps, a 27 percent year-over-year increase. Across the top ten broadband nations, only the Czech Republic, with 34 percent growth, and Sweden at 32 percent, grew faster than the U.S.

For the average peak connection speed, the U.S does not fare as well as it does on the average measured speed. In fact, the U.S. doesn't even crack the global top ten. The global average peak connection speed hit 18.4 Mbps in the first qstate of the internet  a 36 percent year-over-year gain.

JUL 2013 Akamai
In Europe, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Sweden, and Denmark had faster average broadband speeds than the UK, boasting 10.1Mbps, 9.9Mbps, 9.6Mbps, 8.9Mbps and 8.2Mbps, respectively.

SN, You might be  interested in discussing average and peak connection speeds !

Each quarter, Akamai publishes its "State of the Internet" report, based on data gathered across Akamai’s global server network.
