Yeah but even in areas capable of 100Mb, some of their doublespeed dates are next year, it's not about the area being capable, it's also about the area having enough bandwidth to support enough people on the faster speeds.

Not sure if you be interested in Kendo or not, but there is a club in Cardriff which is 20 minutes by train for £5 return from where you are.
Have a very good friend there, you could ask them about joining the next beginners course: http://www.akai-ryuu.com/Pages/default.aspx

What sort of Martial Arts were you looking at doing then?
These are truly magnificent when you turn the volume up, fyi I had creative t20's before but thought a 2.1 set would be better for games and general usage.Harmon Kardon Soundsticks III, they are amazing (speakers).
How right I was. I'm not sure everyone will like the styling, its still growing on me. Got them for £85 from my closest purple shirts shop, they're closing it down.
I'm now trying to find the best place to put the subwoofer, I had it in the corner of the room but it was a bit boomy, now its on the floor to the right of the desk. Might try it under the desk but I like the legroom.
Don't think a subwoofer should be on top of a desk, and you look like a tool.
Chuffed
I have a set of those, they really are very good value for money speakers. Nice bonus that they look so good too
Is there a mute function? I read a review that said there was but all I can see is a volume control on the right satellite.I have a set of those, they really are very good value for money speakers. Nice bonus that they look so good too

Finally bought something from the Steam sale.
Loving my 60Mb connection, didn't take long to download at all.

If its a living room setup probably better off with a decent home theatre system for room filling sound.
If you're using the tv as a pc monitor on your desk, then yes a decent set of pc speakers will be a lot better than the inbuilt tv speakers.
What is it that makes these so great? I've seen a lot of Mac setups with early Hardon Soundsticks, but I never really bothered looking into them. I just went with a pair of studio monitors.
Really clear sound, lows + mids + highs all well represented.
Subwoofer has a tasteful amount of boom not a huge amount that swamps everything.
I like how "clean" they sound, they sound like a reference set of speakers.

It baffles me too, it looks like its all high and low with no mid.
I guess for the money (£80) they are not bad, and it would be unfair to say my speakers are better as they do cost more.
Mine required a bit more faff, phoned up today and took 3 attemps at persuading the guy that I should not be charged extra to upgrade early. I'm now on 100Mb
The 120 upgrade will happen in accordance with doublespeed though, July 2013 :/That is terrible and barely faster than my first cable line back in 2001~!
