Norwegian tidbits

A valued reader in Norway points me towards a couple of recent things of note. First, Q3 2004 official stats show that the core of the broadband market resides in the 512 - 704kbps range, though connections over 1Mbps are now 25% of the total market and growing rapidly. Secondly, this article puts the total number of commercial VoIP users in Norway at 60k (in other words around 12% of broadband users), of which Telio, the little telco that could, has 36,000. Telenor's entry to the market is reported in the article to be March, but the company has said April.
