Wow!  You get 5meg.  I've just moved to a village ( only about 3 miles outside of the nearest big town ) and now I only get 2meg :(

I'm with you on hating the idea of iptv until connections to the home are at least reliably 10 meg or more. Plus the quality of the iplayer stuff is still poor when compared with the likes of BBC hd and accelerated flash playback support still doesn't seem to be very well supported yet.
