ArticleVirgin Media has taken its 100Mbps service live now in four parts of the country(UK), the lucky areas are:
- Heckmondwike
- Farnborough
- Colchester
- Barry, South Wales
The roll-out will continue across the Virgin Media cable network during 2011 with completion set for 2012, at which point almost half the UK will have the option for a 100Meg service at a reasonable price point. The 10Meg upstream speed is respectable, and given powerful enough video encoding solutions would allow someone at home to transmit video at current HD TV levels.
