Just out of curiositys sake I contaceted TE, I live in Youghal and asked
about a 128k leased line to Cork which is 30 miles away and was quoted £1300
for Installation and about £5000 a year. I know for a fact that there are at
leased 4 leased lines already in the town.
Esat on the other hand quoted a similar installation and about £4000 per
year. Unfortunatley it looks as if I'll have to settle for an ISDN line.
All, ive got to figure out now is routing data through the D channel. Any
body have any info on doing this, the idea is to route e-mail through it.

Regards
Robert
