I let everyone setup wireless lan and we'll create our own cellular data
network ! :P ..
than get someone to throw a T-hub onto a co-located box somewhere ... maybe
in temple bar ;p
SSH over wireless at 11Mbps... *drool*

It'll happen !!

As I understand it Esat's break-even point on No Limits, given how
Eircom charge them, is something like three off-peak hours per day. If a
user is online on average more than that every day every month, Esat are
losing money.

Personally I could live with a three hour per day limit until such time
as the ODTR beats the living daylights out of Eircom while repeating the
phrase "We are not a 3rd world country". And while we're at it, where's
my fiber-to-the-doorstep? If we're tearing up the streets for Luas,
can't we do it for something useful too?
