Ofcom vows to untie BT’s local loop knot

Again in the Guardian business section, there’s further news on Ofcom’s pledge to try to loosen BT’s grip on the local exchanges. It looks like this might not go away this time for BT. I think the angle of the peice in the Guardian is more concerned with the local loop in terms of provision of ADSL. I’m more interested in seeing other telco’s being able to get into the exchanges and provide thier own connecitivity for the last mile. Whether that’ll happen only Ofcom knows. But analysts at ovum believe that it’ll be too difficult…nah..that’s what BT want’s us to think.
