Virgin Media testing 3D, 200Mbps and 1080p

Post by Silversurfer »

"Forget 101Mbps Internet service or even the 160Mbps available in on J:COM in Japan, Virgin Media is about to put a lucky few of its slick new modems to real work, testing 200Mbps internet, "full HD" broadband content (we take that to mean 1080p) and 3D. All delivered via DOCSIS 3.0, the downside is that at least for the next six months this pilot project will be extended only to about 100 "lead adopters" around Ashford, Kent for testing. We've heard all we need to get packed for a move, how about you?"

oh wow, 200Mbs of censored internet! Virgin is very progressive for voluntarily enforcing IWF's censorship lists.
