18. Assuming the need for bandwidth will grow, this represents a major investment opportunity

19. Okay this isn’t something we are going to see happening tomorrow, especially if you live the US and Canada with their increasing draconian attitudes about users getting the best broadband experience at a reasonable price, but New Scientist is reporting that NEC scientists have achieved 101.7 Tbs speeds.New Scientist is reporting They did this by cramming the light from 370 lasers into 165 kilometers of fiber, only to be out done by NICT researchers who achieved 109 Tbps by using a special fiber with seven cores. Holy Crap – 100 Terabyte Broadband [Gulp]

20. We need a Big Society approach involving Public Private & Community Investment

21. Communities invest in services they need & value These are not charitable donations they are real investments Peter Day, In Business, BBC Radio 4

22. This includes broadband
