World's first 'do everything' network
I just read this in my local phone book:
"The Next Generation Network (NGN) is our £25 million programme to converge mobile, broadband and fixed line services into one secure internet-based network - the first of its kind in the world. When it's complete, you'll be able to access communications and entertainment in a 'one-stop' way that's simpler, faster and more affordable.
This year we're entering the final stages, which will involve changing over existing fixed line telephone exchange equipment to the NGN. We'll be doing this by exchange area - specific information will appear in the press as dates are confirmed.
If you have any questions about the NGN, please email us on ngninformation@manx-telecom.com, or go to www.manxtelecom.com/ngn"
So there you have it. So, what does this mean? Will it mean lower bills? We'll have to wait and see...
