CommsWorld is now moving to MurphX to supply adsl broadband (amongst other things). The prices certainly look attractive (8Mbps,832Kbps £600 P.A.) but I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with them.

I personally use web tapestry - http://www.webtapestry.net/ - for 
similar usage, but to be honest, most BT Wholesale IPstream Max 
resellers are much of a muchness.  For a business connection, stick to a 
mid-level player like web tap, eclipse, zen, demon, and avoid the "big 
hitters" like AOL, BT, Orange, TalkTalk, etc.

You should be more concerned with how contended and how far your 
exchange is.  Feed your details into http://www.samknows.com/broadband/ 
and find out.
