I was looking into getting them aswell, i'm in ashbourne. My boss who also live in ash has it, afaik installation was quick only a few days after he ordered it. Although i think the hole in the wall they made to bring the cable in is a little too big..

He did have a small problem where the box they install in your house kept tripping his tripswitch, but he got that sorted..
He's happy with it.

Thanks guys for replying to my questions.
I think I will give them a call.
Pity it's a bit pricey @ 59 euro per month.

yeah, tho you can buy the radio equipment from them about 450euro or something ( about the same as 2 years rental of the equipemnt) and then pay 39 a month instead...

but otherwise 59 for an uncapped service is decent (compared with price for capped service from the likes of eircom or iol)
