Sounds like another vulture capitalist.

This bit sounds a little more promising:

Singapore Technologies Telemedia is also believed to have made an offer for Eircom.

They own a majority stake in StarHub, the only cable TV company in Singapore and have been offering 100mb/s BB since 2007, so they sound like they know what they are doing.
