But that seems true for pretty much all hosting offers I've seen in the 
UK.  For the £50/month colo fee (w/ 100G/month free traffic), you're only 
a couple of quid short of a dedicated server w/ ipx-server.de (Germany) - 
with 100MBit/s unlimited traffic...  (And - they're a reliable outfit - 
I've had servers with them for more than 2 years so far - no connectivity 
problems what so ever - and the two times there were hardware problems, 
they fixed them pretty quickly...
