nope, just north america. I know b/w is more in europe and their telephone billing model is completely different.

Some places in eu still pay per min to use their phone line, even for local calls! Besides that i think b/w still costs more in eu. I know ISDN is big out there but how many channels can you bond before you say enough is enough.

dual isdn hahahaha 128kbps hahahaha 16KB/sec hahahaha hardly enough to watch a decent video. I wonder how much that goes for?

I remember getting an ISDN back when i was 18 and working for this company. I think it was roughly 300/month back then, single channel too!

(im 26 now)

ADSL is big in Asia now, they are putting hot spots everywhere so you can use your wireless connection at starbucks, bars & pubs and airports, which is pretty progressive for this part for the world.

Yup broadband is huge in Japan and South Korea. Getting big in China just like Cellphones and Tvs did.

Smokey The Bear · 01-09-2004, 01:50 AM

Japan has more broadband than anyone.

BRISK · 01-09-2004, 01:58 AM

Japan, South Korea, Canada, and Scandinavian countries I think have the highest percentage of broadband users.
