The news is all over the place that Carphone Warehouse has parked its tanks on BT's lawn and plans to offer a very cheap phone/broadband package. The BBC says

Customers using the phone operators' TalkTalk service will be able to make unlimited local and national calls from their home phone for £20.99 a month.

The package includes a broadband internet connection and unlimited calls to 28 countries.

Carphone Warehouse will make a loss of £50m on the business this year, but hopes to make a £40m profit by 2008.

There are no end of broadband providers, as we mentioned in a previous post, but Carphone Warehouse's announcement looks like the beginning of some serious competition that will see prices falling and download limits (bandwidth) rising. This is good news for everyone. Except, perhaps, BT.
