Personally..
I couldn't live without 1gbe synchronous. I'm planning to buy a house in the area of the country I'm from (as opposed to London) in the next few years and the downside to that is I've had to spend time coming up with ways to achieve that and the conclusion is right now it's pretty expensive. There's so many ways to solve this problem and given the volume of money that's been thrown at BT by taxpayers it should have been solved by now. This stuff is absolutely trivial to fix with the volumes of cash floating around.
