Sky Broadband sent me an e-mail today offering me their service £5 a month, 8Mb and 40Gb Cap....Know that sound very good to me.

I already have Be Broadband but I was thinking that it would be great to use my other line to get Sky on and I could use it purely for my Consoles.

I have a Xbox 360, Plan on getting the Wii and my Brother is due to get the PS3....We have 2 PC's, and 2 Laptops.

So I was thinking I could get Sky Broadband for my Consoles, then keep Be Broadband for my Computers for downloading then I wouldn't risk getting lag or having to switch of my PC to host games.

Your thoughts are welcome.

Cheers (Y)

other line? why the hell would you have another line?
other than that, nah, its extra money for something you dont really need.

It's hard trying to drag people out of the past...My father still uses a Fax Machine :'( I feel sorry for him I really do.

The reason I thought it would be a good idea is that I'm slightly concerned about running so much stuff on 14Mb without having problems. I know some people have only 2mb and do fine with Online Gaming.

Just annoying from going from High Speeds back to Low again and that's my concern about when I get all these devices hooked up.
