    Haven't heard anything since the big noise pre their trial launch. Have heard mixed reports from trialists, so they might be ironing out the cracks before a bigger release. I'm sure they'll also think it's commercially sensitive to announce where they're about to release, so we probably won't hear anything until a given launch within a town/city.

    You won't hear anything till it happens. Very sensitive re eircom DSL fixing up and Mobile Company capacity/mast additions.

    There is a trial of joint Digiweb/UPC BB/phone/Digital TV using the Digiweb Mobile technology just started last week in North Dublin.

    I ordered the 14-day trial of this today from Digiweb. Its €50 for NTL digital basic, <=5.3Mb broadband, and phone (I assume VoIP). Only thing they didn't have details on was the phone call packages, but I use it so rarely, I'm not bothered.

    I currently pay €40 to imagine (of which €25 to eircom) for 1mb BB plus phone (no call package) and €25 to NTL as usual.

    the offer I received through the post was for existing chorus/NTL customers only, and came from NTL, not from Digiweb, but was co-branded.

    EDIT: heres the press release. Its north County Dublin only for now.
