24 meg, for £24, 24 hours per day

Posted: Monday 26th September 2005 by Paul
Be, today launched 'Be home 24 meg' - the UK's fastest broadband service.
For just £24 per month, Be offers it's members speeds up to 24 megs and limitless
24 hour per day access to the Internet, using the free, wireless Be Box modem.

Be's 24 meg service represents an exponential leap for Internet users. Just one of
their 24 meg lines can stream two High Definition TV (HDTV) channels, plus three or
four standard TV or Video-on-Demand channels, and still have enough bandwidth for
general surfing or voice calls (VoIP). "This radically advanced capability will
change the way people use their computers and opens up a world of opportunities as
exciting as the advent of broadband itself" said Dana.

Be's pilot membership has been a huge success, with overwhelming levels of interest
in their products. Their first member, who connected during the pilot phase, is
experiencing an average speed of 18.5 meg - breaking the UK speed record. With their
pilot offer now over, Be are beginning to expand their coverage across the UK.

The service costs £24 per month, plus a £24 connection fee, and there is no annual contract.
Be simply ask for 3 months notice if members wish to cancel their service. To register
for 24 meg broadband, and check availability, go to BeThere.co.uk
