It was time for ISPs to grow up and move along with technology. Obviously SmartCity makes a difference. Finally consumers are getting some serious value for money finally with bandwidth going up, although the upload limit still needs to be half the download speed instead of 512k....

Why didnt Melita upgrade the 2mbit connection as well? If they are expect us to shell out an extra €20 / month to get a 10mbit they can forget it.

Well, its movinf towards decent speeds but still way way back. In Sweden now you´ll get a 100Mbps both directions for 320SEK, that is €35, for the the price of €90 you will get a 1Gbps connection!!!

Malta will always remain a third world country.

for some users its more beneficial to lower the prices than increasing bandwidth. Just look at the amount of people who applied for the Lm1 a month internet connection..

more than third world, i believe maltese citizens will always be ripped off by local providers and importers of products and services. argh lol
