Sky Seeks Code Powers to Support New UK PIA and SLU Broadband Trials

This'll be interesting.

They'll likely get code powers but the issue of multiple PCP's (those green boxes you see on the street) will have to be addresses or we'll be seeing thousands of extra ones. Hopefully the can implement them below ground level or something.

Suggestions for Sky.

Hey Sky! You should totally jump on the MVO bandwagon and do triple-play... Call it 'Air'. You can keep that none, I got loads!

Next up! Satellite broadband! You have the workforce of satellite engineers. With a bit of altering to the dish and LNB's you could fix sattelite broadband for those poor soles out in the sticks..

You could call that service 'Space'..

Then you'd have Sky, The Cloud, Air and Space... marketing genius...

In all seriousness it is weird that they are not looking at becoming an MVO. EE are pushing in the fixed line FTTx space and BT have some 4G spectrum and are encroaching on the TV sport space.
