BT Halts Internet Kiosk Rollout

Posted: 16th Jan, 2006 By: MarkJ
BT has admitted to overestimating demand for its Internet kiosks, thus resulting in the ditching of plans for a further rollout:

At present there are around 1,300 Web kiosks installed around the UK at shopping centres, rail stations and airports. They allow users to surf the Web and send emails and text messages, as well as make phone calls.

In late 2001, BT said that 28,000 kiosks would be built, in partnership with Marconi, but the telco confirmed over the weekend that that no more would be installed.
