It is significant as it marks BTs departure away from traditional telecommunications services and towards Internet and media products.

It will be able to support the WBC products using ADSL2+ (up to 24 Mb) when BT Wholesale launches them in April 2008.

BT launched a new look Home Hub in October 2007 with an enhanced wireless footprint.

Most homes will get FTTC service and have up to 40 Mbit/s broadband, those with FTTP will get 100 Mbit/s and a 20 GB monthly usage allowance in 2010, with an unlimited package also offered.

BT have since rolled out Infinity 2 offering up to 79 Mbit/s download and 19 Mbit/s upload with an unlimited package.
