lve spoke to mark about this already, however a few days ago when checking my bandwidth to see how much l had left l noticed a new option which was labeled "DSL" that link is still there today however it has been renamed to "Upgrade", as of yet lve heard nothing or even see anything attached to the link which makes me wonder if three are planning on offering DSL in the future or something and they are just getting ready to provide such a service to customers who are on monthly contract.

if anyone knows anything it would be interesting to know.
 
Watch This Space

I think this is an interesting question, but we are probably unlikely to know the answer until it finally happens (if anything at all), unless an insider at Three wants to break silence and leak some details. I think, however, that the mobile operators and especially Three have figured out that mobile broadband is a massive growth area and a very profitable one. If you consider how much it actually costs them to transfer data across their networks (once they have the technology in place) then the profit margins are huge especially when customers are paying on average £3-5 a GB, and unlike fixed line where most ISP’s use BT wholesale which essentially costs them just under £1 a GB the mobile networks own their networks so there is no incurred cost of adding new broadband customers. Three has recently ramped up it’s Free Laptops available on their mobile broadband as well as increasing their choice of packages, which from experience leads me to believe that they are looking to compete with fixed line in the future. I think it is a matter of watch this space!
