Re: [Nettime-nl] xs4all gaat samenwerken met KPN konkurr |
En hangt die samenwerking dan ook samen met de prijsverhoging die KPN vandeweek heeft doorgevoerd voor ADSL/MXstream. Ik was net geswitcht naar Xs4all/Adsl omdat UPC zomaar de prijzen omhoog gooide en er dan geen verschil meer was -in prijs tenminste- met een kabelaansluiting. Nog steeds blij terug in het nest te komen hoor, maar toch... eveline From: geert lovink <geert@desk.nl> To: nettime-nl@nettime.org Date sent: Wed, 9 Jan 2002 11:39:33 +1100 Subject: [Nettime-nl] xs4all gaat samenwerken met KPN konkurrent > Subscribe to your own personalised europemedia.net weekly newsletter at > rounding up all the major news and trends in the new media, internet, > telecoms and IT industries across Europe.
