A trial for the service begins in Northern Ireland this month with a planned national launch in September.

According to BT, the service will work on a pay-as-you-go principle which is designed to "grow the Internet". Customers will pay a penny-a-minute additional charge on BT's standard local call rate and if customers use BT's discount schemes further savings can be made.

Full Story with ISP comment will follow later today

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
