Where did you read this? Doesn't surprise me but I would still
recommend Eclipse. Top 10 speed on ADSLGuide, uninterrupted service,
telephone support good, e-mail support slow, "free" static IP blah blah
blah

No they aren't.

Eclipse was eventually bought by Kingston. Demon are nothing to do with
Eclipse whatsoever.

Indeed they confirmed that today, so it looks like I will be going with
them now, once I can find out where to get my MAC Code from within the
snaggles of BT Openworld / Yahoo!
