I imagine it would be a lot easier (and cheaper) to hook up 57,000
inhabitants than trying to equip 60,000,000 people.

Indeed... the map shows around a dozen main conurbations...

I guess Siemens will offer low cost rates for data over GSM for the population
outside those centres. Oh, and look what else they have to "look forward" to,
in Greenland... <http://www.commondreams.org/headlines05/1120-03.htm> PGM.

Sure, buying cable will be ten percent cheaper. Whoopy doo. You need
10,000 times as much.

I don't see why this links to any particular ISP. Surely you should be
referring to all UK ISPs or more correctly, the wholesalers who do not
provide products which all for the same set up as in Greenland.
