Latest broadband news comes from BT. The communications giant has announced that it will expand its roll-out ofnext-generation broadband to bring super-fast services to two-thirds of the UK.

The original plan was for BT’s fibre services, offering speeds of up to 40 megabits per second, to serve 40% of the population by 2012. But now a £1billion boost will see the service rolled out to a further 20% of the population by 2015. It’s claimed the first four million people will be connected by the end of the year.
