Eircom,

announced its most recent results this morning, and according to the following article on the RTE website are upbeat on their prospects of meeting their 500,000 target by the end of 2007.

It looks as if they have signed around 3,000 customers in the last month, and given that they need 383,000 new customers in the next 35 months they are going to be doing well to meet their targets, especially given the falling internet usage in Ireland.
