Skeddan Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 One of the things that caught my eye in this 'advertorial' feature was the eBusiness ad from Treasury: We live speed If connectivity matters to your business then there’s no better place to operate from that the Isle of Man. Famed for out TT races we’ve put the same racing spirit into our telecommunications structure. Infinite bandwidth allows for superfast downloads and our data hosting and security are miles ahead of the competition. Just like our road racing, our e business infrastructure is truly world class. I'd thought IoM was lagging quite far behind - certainly much less advanced than Singapore or Japan with Gigabit broadband. What about cost of HSPDA connectivity - is there no better place? But maybe I was mistaken - what really stood out is 'infinite bandwidth'. Wow!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 The originators/contributors for that need to be congratulated. Good start - need more though, so keep going please. Can we get some of those involved on TV too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about cost of HSPDA connectivity - is there no better place? Guess it depends who they're comparing with. We certainly compare favorably with Dublin, Jersey, Guernsey, BVI, Bermuda and Caymans, which are all still pretty expensive and slow for internet access.

Albert Tatlock Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 This should be under 'local news', not international IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alibaba Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 It's very fluffy, and talks about the Islands motto as 'freedom to flourish', which it isn't. How much did it cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
